Hoxha: Agas's arrest was a controlled surrender, Rama removed a burden from

Journalist Artan Hoxha has commented on the arrest of businessman Ergys Agasi, describing it as a "controlled surrender" and raising questions about the circumstances that led to his detention.

Invited to Syri TV, on the show "Kafe Shqeto", Hoxha stated that Agasi could not have been exposed suddenly, considering the power and influence he had created over the years.

The journalist stated that Agasi had collected materials and documents that could constitute an important archive on the activities and agreements in which he was involved.

Hoxha made a strong statement linking Agasi's arrest to Prime Minister Edi Rama.

"He filmed everything perfectly, he had everything in his hands. This man so powerful, it's revealed so suddenly, who gave him the verdict. Why was this controlled surrender. He moved freely and there was no doubt where he was. With his voice and his image, he left us stranded, not at the reception office of Eco Resort, near the shopping center. He turned into the man who had made an archive, a card file, every signature, every agreement.

So they took him to Bradashesh, in Elbasan. All of this that Gysi's story ends here. Gysi's accusations are tenders, influence, max with a shortened trial his sentence could be reduced, minimum sentence in exchange for silence. He took on a lot, there are a lot of towers that he took money from, so Gysi was a problem, he had not entered these levels.

He had accumulated money and power. Gysi, for one who knows how to turn into a collaborator of justice, seeing what happens, it is not uncommon for an official to turn into a collaborator of justice. He went to Gysi by chance, for cigarette smuggling, it was an operation with the British, he had exceeded the license, he was causing great damage, to a British company. When they went to Gysi in June 2025, these materials were accidentally found. The moment they caught them, they opened up a job for themselves.

Gysi has already been identified as a coordinator, so his power began to fall. From December onwards, Agasi was a big problem. He could talk and be caught by someone who could open problems for him, so they put him in a cage. Controlled surrender, the happiest man was Rama, he has removed a big burden from himself. Rama is the one who runs the game, the power. We are in the 7th year of SPAK, you have seen concrete things of a high level that he has done. Why should he do it now when they have done it for 7 years in a row. It has not happened because it cannot happen. All investigations lead to Rama, but they are tearing them apart, by factionalizing them" , said Hoxha.
