The High Judicial Council (HJC) decided not to consider the report of the Career Council regarding the verification of the mandate of special judge Irena Gjoka. According to the in-depth investigation of the General Prosecutor's Office, Gjoka was convicted in Greece for using a forged visa, a fact that she had not declared in the decriminalization form.

KLGJ member Ridvan Hado proposed that the consideration of this issue be transferred to the High Inspector of Justice, arguing that the discussion about the judge's unsuitability arose after she had received the status of magistrate. This proposal was not put to a vote, so it remains to be seen whether it will be discussed at the next meeting of the Council.

The issue of the special judge was included as a discussion item on the agenda of the KLGJ meeting in a lack of transparency and without prior notice. On Friday, about an hour after the meeting had started, the Council updated the agenda by adding the case of Irena Gjoka as a new item.

According to the in-depth verification of the General Prosecutor's Office, the judge was sentenced to three months in prison and a 1500 euro fine for using a forged visa, a sentence that was later converted into a fine.

The member of the Special Court was denounced by former Prime Minister Sali Berisha for concealing this criminal conviction in Greece. Later, Berisha also published the document of the Greek court that, according to him, confirms the conviction of Irena Gjoka. The denunciations and accusations against her began after she signed the security measures against the leader of the Democratic Party in the “Partizani” file, where Berisha is accused of corruption committed in collaboration.

Meanwhile, SPAK has opened a criminal investigation into the accusation of falsification of the decriminalization form by Judge Irena Gjoka.
