Accused of murdering two basketball players in Korça, Damiano Toshi

The Elbasan Court has changed the sentence for Damiano Toshi, one of the well-known names in the black chronicle, sentencing him to 25 years in prison instead of life imprisonment.

The decision was made after a retrial of the case, ordered by the Supreme Court, which had previously overturned the life sentence and sent the case back for a fresh trial. During the new trial, the court accepted the request for a summary trial, which resulted in a reduction in the sentence.

Damiano Toshi was convicted of the murder of basketball players of the "Skënderbeu" team, Sokol Jahollari and Rafael Rizani, as well as the wounding of Julian Beckë. The crime occurred on September 3, 2004 near the Sports Palace in Korça and remains one of the most serious criminal events of that period.

With the new decision, Toshi has received a reduction in his sentence and, taking into account the time served in prison, may be released if the conditions provided for by the legislation in force are met.

Damiano Toshi has been mentioned in the media over the years as one of the names associated with the so-called "5 Shops" gang, a criminal group that operated in Korça in the early 2000s.
