Berisha attacks protesters calling for his arrest

Democratic Party leader Sali Berisha accused protesters calling for his arrest of acting on behalf of Prime Minister Edi Rama’s government.

Berisha spoke after appearing at SPAK, Albania’s anti-corruption prosecution office, under a reporting requirement linked to the Partizani case.

For 35 days, protesters have chanted “Berisha to prison” during demonstrations.

Berisha called them a “fake opposition” and said they were using the protest to attack him. He said his presence at protests strengthens the opposition.
