Elio Costa, only 16 years old, has asked for the help of the show Fiks Fare after in January 2022 he applied for a passport renewal, the latter expired in December 2020.
Elio has been living in Greece for many years with his family where he also studies. He indicates that he has not been able to withdraw his passport since January, even though he has applied for a fast 3-day passport. According to him, when he was notified about the withdrawal of his passport together with his mother by the employees of the Tirana Police Directorate, he was told that he could not withdraw it, as there is a problem with his identification.
Elios’s father has gone several times to inquire at the ALEAT company, and the latter tell him that he should come to take an interest from time to time. Journalists of Fiks Fare together with Elion address the Civil Registry Number 2 in the city of Tirana, where his family is registered, to ask how the problem is.
The employee of this institution outside the camera said that the application is made and at the moment that the passport has a delay falls to be the case of the commission, the commission is evaluated by the General Directorate of Civil Status. The documents are collected and sent there. The commission comes up with a decision, as there has been a discrepancy.
“We send the data. The case has been delegated by the company ALEAT to the General Directorate of Civil Status, and the latter brings it for verification where the unit is. The letter from our institution has been sent, when the commission comes out with a decision, the citizen will be notified. The papers were sent within the legal deadlines. Elio has the right to obtain a passport. This application has only an identity number, the face probably does not match the photo “, says the civil status employee.
Fiks Fare was also interested in Commissariat NO. 2 Tirana regarding the verification procedures for the Elios problem. This commissariat made available to Fiks Fare the document through which it is explained that on March 1, 2022 Elio was interviewed by the commissariat employees at the request of the Ministry of Interior, which proves that Elio Costa is the same person.
But forensic expert Artan Rexhepi says similar cases are very rare. “Similarity problems occur only with the change of generalities. No matter how much a person develops fingerprints, the retina of the eyes and other features on the face are immutable.
It is an application that helps state experts to perform expertise as quickly as possible, but to my knowledge in our country there is not, in a similar case the help of private experts may be required, but they also perform the expertise manually. All this finding does not require more than 2 weeks time “claims the forensic expert.
But until the institutions resolve the impasse that has been created for them, Elios continues to live away from his family and has also lost the school year.
