Trial over “Geriatric Clinic” Case Starts, Defendants Plead Not Guilty

The trial over the “Geriatric Clinic” case started Monday at the Criminal Court in Skopje. At the start of the trial, defendants Muhsin Ademi, Director of the State Clinic for Geriatric and Palliative Medicine, and Blerim Amiti, pleaded not guilty over the charges of accepting bribery.

The case was revealed when a man from Skopje reported to the authorities that Arifi demanded from him 20,000 euros to secure accommodation for his elderly grandmother at the clinic, while Amiti acted as a channel between the two.
