Madam President expresses her utmost regret for the tragic loss of life of three citizens in the serious murder committed in Gjilan and conveys her most sincere condolences to the families of the victims. Madam President also requests from the competent bodies that the perpetrators of this macabre act be caught as soon as possible and brought to justice, to face full legal responsibility. It is regrettable that last year the same were released by the justice institutions, after a short time spent in detention, despite the serious crimes for which they were accused.
The manipulation with the aim of misinforming public opinion, using random photographs taken in public spaces that the perpetrator of these crimes had taken with a number of public figures, is also worrying. A simple investigation shows that these photographs were taken during a festive event organized by the Embassy of the Republic of Albania to Kosovo, on the occasion of a public activity attended by other institutional representatives, political figures, other guests and citizens. Within a year, the President is photographed with thousands of citizens and participants in public activities, whom she neither knows nor can know what their activity is. Therefore, the allusions to alleged “association” are nothing more than slander.
Madam President once again calls on the law enforcement and justice authorities to act in accordance with the law, so that the perpetrator receives the deserved punishment.
