The High Prosecutorial Council (KLP) received applications from 27 prosecutors who want to join the Special Anti-Corruption Prosecution Office (SPAK). The deadline for applications was January 21st.
The KLP determined in January that the initial SPAK team will consist of 15 prosecutors. It also suggested that considering the expected workload, 5 additional prosecutors could be hired by SPAK once it has been installed.
According to the SPAK Law art. 57(11), all SPAK prosecutors must be confirmed by the vetting institutions with a “final decision.” So different from the KLP, Justice Appointments Council (KED), and the High Judicial Council (KLGj), SPAK prosecutors will not be able to start their job until they have passed through the entire vetting procedure.
Serious Crimes Prosecution Director Prela is also among the SPAK candidates. The vetting commission confirmed Prela in her duty in early February despite serious allegations raised against her.
The following 27 prosecutors have applied for SPAK:

Arben Kraja
