American Ambassador to Tirana, Donald Lu strongly reacted on Wednesday against the confession of former Chief Prosecutor, Adritatik Llalla that he required the arrest of Ilir Meta.
"Former chief prosecutor, Adriatik Llalla is a corrupt and discredited public official who is under active investigation for money laundering and unexplained mass wealth. It is not surprising that he continues to speak against judicial reform because he is now threatened to go to jail for his corruption.
He claimed that within four months of my arrival in Tirana, I told him to arrest former Speaker of Parliament Ilir Meta. This is an absurd lie by Mr. Lalla, without any basis in facts. His lies are an insult to President Meta and the Albanian people," reacted Lu.
