The Appeal Chamber held on 21.12.2022, at 10:00, the public hearing of case (JR) 47/2020, dated 22.10.2020, pertaining to the appeal of the Public Commissioner against decision no. 264, dated 17.06.2020, of the Independent Qualification Commission related to the assessee Elona Toro.
Following the interim decision of the previous hearing, the parties debated on the preliminary financial analysis carried out by the Chamber. During the debate, the case rapporteur addressed some clarifying questions to the Public Commissioner, as well as to the assessee, Ms. Elona Toro, who requested a reasonable time period to prepare the responses to the questions.
As regards the two public denunciations, the Public Commissioner stated that they do not contain sufficient grounds for further investigations, while the assessee stated that she has lodged with the Chamber the documents that rebut the claims raised in these denunciations.
After listening to the positions of the parties and evaluating the acts filed by the assessee, the trial panel decided to not investigate ex officio these denunciations, as they do not meet the requirements of Article 53 of Law 84/2016 “On the transitional re-evaluation of judges and prosecutors in the Republic of Albania”.
The panel accepted the request of the assessee for a sufficient time period, deciding to postpone the hearing to January 10, 2023, at 10:00. During this hearing, the judicial debate about the preliminary financial analysis will continue, and the parties must be prepared for the final conclusions of the case.
The public hearing will take place in the premises of the Appeal Chamber, at Boulevard “Deshmoret e Kombit”, no. 3, Tirana.
