The Public Commissioner within the legal time limit filed an appeal at the Appeal Chamber by the Constitutional Court against the Decision no. 269/2020, of the Independent Qualification Commission, for the subject of re-evaluation, Mrs. Valdete Hoxha, judge at the Appeal Court in Tirana.

The Public Commissioner, after reviewing the decision no. 269/2020 ascertains that the conclusion reached by the Independent Qualification Commission related to the confirmation in duty of the subject of re-evaluation, Mrs. Valdete Hoxha, are the results of an erroneous evaluation of evidence and an incomplete and exhaustive administrative investigation.

The Public Commissioner requests from the Appeal Chamber to reopen the judicial investigation for all the three re-evaluation criteria, as he assesses that the subject of re-evaluation does not achieve a trustable level for the confirmation in duty.

Pursuant to point 1, Article 16 of the Regulation “On the Activity of the Institution of Public Commissioners”, the appeal is published on the official website of this institution: http://ikp.al/ankime
