Businessman Behgjet Pacolli has denied the contract for the sale of 47 percent of shares in Vlora Airport. Through a post on social networks, he has accused notary Valbona Selimi of defrauding and committing illegal acts. Pacolli has also accused the former administrator of the company, Valon Lluka, of being involved in this fraud.
Pacolli's full status
All the rumors and this situation in relation to VIA have come about as a result of the irresponsible and suspected illegal actions of notary Valbona Selimi, undertaken in secret and in the complete absence of the legal party.
In respect of the public's right to information, I declare the following:
According to media reports published today, the notary in Tirana, Ms. Valbona Selimi, claimed that the parties were present during the signing of the deed of transfer of shares from MABCO Construction SA to the company "2A".
On this occasion, I publicly clarify that neither I nor any person authorized by MABCO Construction SA, headquartered in Lugano, owner of 98% of the shares deriving from the investment in Vlora International Airport, have ever been to her office, have not met notary Selimi, have not had any communication with her or her representatives and have not signed any document or power of attorney in her presence. In fact, to this day, we have no knowledge of where she exercises her notarial activity.
However, in a notarial deed from 2023 (which the notary illegally used as part of the property transfer documentation) which she describes as a power of attorney, notary Selimi included false statements, claiming in writing that I, Behgjet Pacolli, had been physically present in her office, that she had identified me, that she had read the deed to me in the presence of an English translator, and that, after my approval, I had signed the relevant document.
These claims are completely false.
I don't know the notary Selimi,
I have never signed any document in her presence.
I have never been to her offices or premises, I am not aware of the existence of such a translator, and no text has ever been read to me or presented for signature by her or any person representing her in relation to the aforementioned acts.
Furthermore, I emphasize that this notarial deed constitutes a fundamental element of the suspected illegal activity undertaken by Mr. Valon Lluka @ co., with which, at the beginning of April, he attempted to transfer 47% of the shares, keeping it hidden until it was accidentally discovered four months later, on August 18, 25, in the documentation of the former administrator of the VIA company.
This act, carried out in secret, constitutes the source and initial cause of this situation we are facing today.
