KLSH finding on the Ministry of Culture and restoration payments involving Blendi Gonxhja (unconfirmed)
Status: Unconfirmed headline only.
Summary
A Sot.com.al headline says KLSH 'exposed' the Ministry of Culture and a financial affair in restoration work and payments involving Blendi Gonxhja. The page was blocked (HTTP 403) and no KLSH text was found. Searches in Albanian for the KLSH finding returned no matching audit. The finding is therefore not confirmed. Other KLSH 2026 Ministry of Culture work found in secondary reports (April 2026 audit of the strategic art and culture document, Tirana Mosaic and Gallery of Arts violations) is a separate item and does not name Gonxhja in the summaries seen.

Gonxhja / KLSH finding on restoration payments: not confirmed
Sot.com.al returned HTTP 403. Searches found no KLSH finding on Gonxhja-linked restoration payments. A 2025 KLSH final audit of the Ministry of Culture exists (klsh.org.al upload); its PDF could not be read (binary). A secondary report citing BalkanWeb (not confirmed in the original source) says the National Historical Museum facade restoration was EU4Culture-funded, which points to EU rather than state payments. Still unverified.
