Following the opening of the hearing, the presiding judge informed the court as follows:

On 08.04.2025, the assessee submitted with the Appeal Chamber a document entitled “Request for opening the investigation by the Appeal Chamber”. This act was filed both via email and directly by the assessee in the form of a written document signed by him. This request contained attached a judicial decision of the Court of Appeal of General Jurisdiction of Tirana. The trial panel, in the hearing dated 04.04.2025, decided to conclude the judicial investigation of the case and withdrew in chambers to make the final decision, a decision which it made in the deliberations it held on 04.04.2025, in the presence of the International Observer of the case. The request was filed a few days later, on 08.04.2025, and the panel was legally unable to consider any request that may be submitted by the parties after the final decision was made. For this reason, in compliance with the legal provisions, this request of the assessee was not taken into account by the panel, consequently, it shall continue with the announcement of the final decision taken by the panel on this case.

Subsequently, the trial panel of the Appeal Chamber, consisting of judges, Sokol Çomo, presiding, Albana Shtylla, rapporteur, Ina Rama, Mimoza Tasi, Natasha Mulaj, members, announced the decision on case no. 27/2022, dated 17.06.2022, pertaining to the appeal of the Public Commissioner against decision no. 521, dated 01.04.2022 of the Independent Qualification Commission, related to the assessee Erjon Shehaj.

– The amendment of decision no. 521, dated 01.04.2022 of the Independent Qualification Commission and the dismissal from office of the assessee Erjon Shehaj.

– This decision is final and effective immediately.
