Today, on 21.06.2021, at 10:00, the Appeal Chamber held the public hearing of the case (JR) no. 3/2020, dated 14.01.2020 corresponding to the appeal of the Public Commissioner filed against decision no. 200, dated 16.10.2019, of the Independent Qualification Commission related to the assessee Besim Hajdarmataj.

The Public Commissioner submitted the appeal grounds regarding the two re-evaluation criteria for the assessee: the proficiency and the asset assessment criteria, as well as the overall evaluation on the case, asking the Appeal Chamber to amend the decision of the Independent Qualification Commission subject to review and dismissal of the assessee.

The assessee and his legal representative objected the appeal grounds filed by the Public Commissioner, claiming that they were non-objective, disproportionate, unfounded in law, in evidence or the circumstances of the case. In support of these claims, in addition to some acts filed with the Appeal Chamber on 15.06.2021 – which were forwarded in advance to the Public Commissioner – the assessee filed new acts attached to objections submitted in today’s hearing, by requesting the reopening of the judicial investigation of the case.

At the request of the presiding judge, the Public Commissioner stated his position regarding the denunciations filed in the name of the assessee, Mr. Hajdarmataj, by deeming that they contain no circumstances that should be included in the appeal grounds.

In order for the Public Commissioner to have the appropriate time to comment on the acts filed by the assessee, the trial panel decided to adjourn the public hearing on 06.07.2021, at 12:00.

The public hearing shall take place at the premises of the Appeal Chamber, at: Bulevardi “Dëshmorët e Kombit”, nr.3. Tirana.
