The lawyer for former SHISH director Vlora Hyseni appeared this Tuesday at the Special Court, while Hyseni herself did not take part in the hearing. In a process that has already seen procedural delays, the absence of the parties and the postponements continue to raise questions about the pace of proceedings at GJKKO.
The lawyer in court, Hyseni absent
Lawyer Kastriot Selita, who represents Vlora Hyseni in the court proceedings against her, was seen at the premises of the Special Court.
According to information reported from the scene, the former SHISH director refused to appear at the hearing. At this stage, no further official explanations have been made public regarding her absence.
The hearing had been postponed a day earlier
The proceedings had been scheduled to take place a day earlier, but were postponed because of the prosecutor’s absence.
That earlier postponement, now combined with the defendant’s absence from the hearing, further prolongs the progress of the case in a court that handles cases of high public interest.
Questions over the progress of the proceedings
So far, the main element confirmed from the hearing is the presence of the legal defense and the absence of Vlora Hyseni.
In the absence of further details from the court or the parties, it remains to be seen how the continuation of this process will be handled and whether there will be another rescheduling of the judicial calendar.
The case comes at a time when public attention toward proceedings at GJKKO remains high, especially when former high-level officials are involved.
For now, the facts made public are limited to the appearance of the lawyer, the absence of Vlora Hyseni, and the earlier postponement due to the prosecutor’s absence.
