The Albanian University distances itself: "No honorary degree in Solinas"

A press release, a post on Facebook and an interview on TV: the rector of the public university of Medicine of Tirana, Arben Gjata, uses all possible channels to distance his university from one of the corruption investigations involving the president of the Region, Christian Solinas ( HERE THE NEWS ).

In a note published on the official website, he explains that "Solinas has never been a professor at this University and has not received the title of doctor honoris causa or any kind of honor". Concept reiterated also to Euronews. The professor and surgeon, even on social media, distances himself and asks for clarity.

The name of his faculty was brought up in the investigation by the Prosecutor of the Republic of Cagliari opened to shed light on the relationship between the governor and Roberto Raimondi, now former general manager of the office of the Eni Cbs authority, which manages substantial funds intended for Euro-Mediterranean policies: the assignment was revoked during the last board meeting, when the news of the investigation had become public knowledge.

According to the deputy prosecutor Giangiacomo Pilia, the position had been assigned to Raimondi in exchange for an honorary degree in Medicine from a university in Tirana to the president of the Region, followed by teaching at the Albanian university: from the curriculum, it emerges that Raimondi would have instead a chair beyond the Adriatic.

According to the prosecutor's office, the same scheme would also have been used in another Roman faculty where the Guardia di Finanza of Cagliari has already carried out searches. According to the investigators, the intermediary of the operation would have been Solinas' consultant, Christian Stevelli.

From Albania only taken away. While the case is covered by the main private TV channels in the country.
