Reaction:
Today, in the “Solo” cafeteria in the center of Skenderaj, the Deputy Minister of Finance, candidate for MP and Chairman of the LVV Center in Skenderaj, Hysni Mehani, was brutally attacked by the Mayor of Skenderaj Municipality, Sami Lushtaku, and his bodyguards. This physical attack occurred at the time when Mr. Mehani was drinking coffee with MP Arjeta Fejza and LVV activists.
Initially, Hysni Mehani was punched, and then hit in the head with a glass. After the attempt of the Secretary of the Center, Bahri Zabeli to prevent the escalation, he was violently attacked by Sami Lushtaku's companions, also suffering severe blows. Hysni Mehani is currently receiving medical treatment.
This thuggish physical attack clearly shows that these people have no place in the leadership of central and local public institutions. We ask the competent authorities to handle the case urgently and take the necessary legal action against those responsible. We also ask the Democratic Party of Kosovo to condemn this act.
The VETËVENDOSJE! Movement strongly condemns this physical attack, but at the same time it shows all of them that they cannot scare or intimidate any activist of the VETËVENDOSJE! Movement or citizen of the Republic.
