SPAK’s request has now been submitted to the Special Court, which will rule on the case. Shkreli faces a charge of active corruption in elections.
According to SPAK, during the May 11 election campaign, Shkreli “promised and offered material benefits to voters in the village of Stajkë in Vau i Dejës Municipality in exchange for their votes for the Social Democratic Party.”
The prosecution says Shkreli took advantage of Stajkë residents’ need for electricity network infrastructure, an investment carried out during the campaign.
