The presiding judge informed the court that based on Article 49, para 10, of Law no. 84/2016 “On the transitional re-evaluation of judges and prosecutors in the Republic of Albania”, the International Observer of the International Monitoring Operation had filed a finding with the Appeal Chamber, which had become part of the case file, and it has forwarded it to the assessee, Mrs. Dhurata Haveri, for which her legal representative held a position during today’s hearing.
