The Special Prosecutor’s Office (SPAK) has sent for trial the former mayor of Patos and 6 other officials, accused of violating equality in tenders. From SPAK’s investigations, it turns out that the former mayor and the members of the bid evaluation committee in cooperation between them have favored contrary to the law and declared an economic operator the winner for the construction of a retaining wall in Dukas-Breg.
From the documentation submitted by the bidders, looking at this in relation to the criteria established in the Standard Tender Documents, another operator should have been declared the winner.
The investigations revealed that Balili has taken a series of steps through the employees of the Municipality, to legitimize the cancellation of the tendering procedure, precisely so that the operator that met the criteria was not declared the winner./abcnews.al
