Ervin Bushati
Socialist Party (PS)
Profile
Socialist Party MP. In October 2018 the Democratic Party (PD) filed a criminal complaint alleging he did not declare seven immovable properties in his asset declarations.

Asset-concealment enforcement has reached both main parties' MPs
PD's complaint against PS MP Ervin Bushati led to a SPAK investigation, and a court confiscated properties linked to PD MP Kasem Mahmutaj's family. If both are accurate, asset enforcement is not one-sided by party, though the timing and outcomes differ.
Evidence for
- SPAK confirmed an investigation of Bushati for non-declaration of assets (2020).
- Court confiscation of Mahmutaj-family properties on a non-legal-source basis (2022).
Evidence against
- Bushati's case has no charges reported in five years, while Mahmutaj's confiscation was a court order in a civil-type proceeding.
- The Mahmutaj case is about a brother's proceeding; the deputy himself is not charged.
- Journalist Sokol Bregu argued the Mahmutaj timing was political, which would weaken the enforcement-symmetry reading.
