As reported by Anila Hoxha, Veliaj stated: "I am not here for mercy, nor for the drama of my family, for what he has caused to my family. I am here to show what this Municipality of Tirana caused, when I see people who haven't finished their magistracy and are arresting people. I am the only person who has been arrested by someone who does not exist. Nesti Angoni does not exist. I have been accused regarding the incinerators. Yesterday I won the defamation lawsuit, with the Italian. I fear that all of this is an intrigue. Where has Erjon Veliaj harmed in his work? What prompted me to file this lawsuit is the only case where the 2-month deadline to register a proceeding was not registered after 7 months, when the deadline was 15 days. Many things are skipped in this process, this is a charlatan who has taken this matter into his own hands, this has nothing to do with SPAK or with the justice reform. 7 months of proceeding registration and then another 1 year of registering my name. A vetting of my life has been done to me. My life was taken away when I was at Mjaft in 2004."
