The chairman of the Kosovo Procurement Review Body, Hysni Hoxha, has resigned from his post today. Sources told Koha that Hoxha cited health reasons in his resignation letter. Hoxha has been indicted by the Special Prosecution of Kosovo with “abuse of position or authority”. Pristina-based news site Kallxo quotes Hoxha as saying, “my resignation has nothing to do with the charges against me. Those charges are nonsense and are not related to this”.

In an interview for Radio Dukagjini, Syle Hoxha, the Acting State Chief Prosecutor of Kosovo, said several government ministers are being investigated for corruption but that Prime Minister Isa Mustafa is not one of them. “We are not selecting between small or big fish. Every case of this nature is a priority. There is certain information about people that you refer to as big fish and we will certainly not hesitate to do our job,” he said. Hoxha also said that several members of Mustafa’s cabinet while he was Mayor of Pristina are under investigation.
