In the main trial session against the accused Kreshnik Haliti for the murder of his friend Mentor Zekaj, the injured party Mirjeta Zekaj stated that in the sheet where it was written to give the debt to the accused, there is no signature of her now deceased husband Zekaj .

The injured party, Mirjeta Zekaj, made this statement on Tuesday, in continuation of her hearing as a witness, after reviewing that letter again.

Initially, in the questions of the defense counsel of the accused Haliti, lawyer Besnik Berisha, Zekaj said that after a year from the event of the critical day, she had received a loan from the business "Erijoni".

However, regarding the reason why she had taken that loan, she refused to answer on the grounds that she had answered several times.

Afterwards, the injured party was asked when she had given the part of 48 thousand euros to Agim Trakanic.

But, this question was opposed by the prosecutor Lumturije Vuçetaj because according to her, it was consumed.

However, the court allowed her, and Zekaj said that he no longer answers either yes or no, because according to her he took the loan and clarified it.

Afterwards, the defense asked him if it was correct that according to the evidence submitted for the turnover card on the banking transaction, it is shown that not a single cent was passed to Agim Trakaniqi.

Zekaj said that he does not remember and that everything is in the account, as he finds them, addressing the lawyer.

The witness further stated that she had brought evidence that the money for the house bought by Agim Trakaniqi had been transferred to his wife Lirije Trakaniqi.

For this, the prosecutor again presented the deposits made through "NLB Bank" to Lirije Trakanic.

In those transactions, it was said that on December 2, 2016, the deposit slip in the name of Lirije Trakanic is reflected, in the amount of 80 thousand euros, the deposit was made in the name of Driton Zeka, payment for the house, the other deposit was from April 12, 2017, where it is here The injured witness Mirjeta Zekaj on behalf of Lirije Trakanic had deposited the amount of 5 thousand euros, on March 10, 2018, also the injured party from her account deposited on behalf of Lirije Trakanic the amount for the partial payment according to the contract of sale for real estate, of 20 thousand euros with the stated destination.

The defense then asked the trial panel to only conclude that the loan was taken on April 3, 2018.

According to lawyer Berisha, from the evidence that was read, the amount of 80 thousand euros shows that it was not given to Kreshnik Halitaj, but was deposited in the account of Lirije Trakanic, which is allegedly given to Kreshik.

But, the witness Zekaj emphasized that this money is not related to the case, because according to her it is not related to Kreshnik Haliti.

After questions about the contract or any other note regarding Kreshnik's debt, she stated that she had clarified it earlier and that she no longer remembers it.

Lawyer Berisha, with the permission of the court, presented her with a letter that was marked regarding that debt, which according to the statement of the witness she had kept in the same purse for 3-4 days after her husband had asked her.

Then, regarding that letter, after looking at it, she says that there is no signature of the now deceased Mentor on that sheet.

Regarding the time when that letter was signed, she says that she was not present, she was at home but did not look at her, neither the victim with the accused, nor the letter she had kept in her purse.

Afterwards, lawyer Berisha addressed her, saying that according to her statement, that letter contained the signatures of both Mentor and Kreshnik, while today, at a glance, she concluded that Mentor's signature did not exist.

For this, the lawyer asked if there was a possibility that there was another letter which the injured party called a contract with two signatures, but the same denied such a thing.

"I do not know what I said then, I was not myself and I still am not, I do not remember the letter was with me and I did not read it," said the injured party Zekaj.

Asked that even though 5 years have passed, is there a letter, recording, debt contract, in which the amount of 80-86 thousand was ascertained with the signature of Kreshnik and Mentor, as I know exactly what it was.

The injured party-witness Zekaj said that there is no answer to this question.

Further, regarding the hearing of other witnesses, the prosecutor said that she remains close to the previous statements, since the event took place 5 years ago and the same are in the outside world.

She reiterated the proposal that witness statements be considered read from previous hearings.

While the defense attorney of the accused Haliti, lawyer Berisha, stated that the witness Driton Zeka could not be accepted as such for them, he opposed the proposal to find and read his statement.

He had the same opinion for the other witness, Haxhi Morina, so he asked the court to set a date when the witness Driton Zekaj could be heard, and then to continue with the defense witnesses.

Regarding the proposal of the prosecution witnesses and the defense objection regarding the hearing of witness Zekaj, the presiding judge Murat Hulaj stated that the trial panel will make a decision in the next session.

After that, the court decided to postpone today's hearing to continue according to the agenda set on June 17 and 20, 2022.
