The well-known Albanian moderator and producer, Ardit Gjebrea, appeared on Friday, November 6, 2026, at the premises of the Special Prosecutor's Office against Corruption and Organized Crime (SPAK) in Tirana. He was questioned for about two and a half hours in the capacity of a person who has knowledge of a case under investigation.
The questioning is related to an investigation separated from the file of the mayor of Tirana, Erion Veliaj. Gjebrea was summoned by prosecutor Ols Dado. No details have been published about the specific case for which his testimony was requested.
After leaving SPAK, the moderator confirmed to the media that he had been called as a witness and that he could not talk about the content of the questions, as it is a matter covered by investigative secrecy. He said that he respects the institution and that this was the first time he appeared there.
Gjebrea was seen entering the SPAK building alone, without a lawyer. Footage of his arrival was published by several media outlets in Albania, while the interest of journalists continued even after the end of the interrogation.
The fact that a person is called to give information in an investigation does not mean that they have been charged. In the reports so far, Gjebrea is described as a person in the know and not as a defendant or suspect.
The Special Prosecutor's Office has not made public the content of the moderator's testimony, nor the concrete connection of the information he may have provided with the separate proceedings. This remains unknown even after his statement to the media.
