The two assassinations in Lezha and Tirana have a common name: Roan Brahimi, killed in Athens in May 2024. On Thursday evening, unidentified persons killed his father, Gjovalin Prendi, in Lezha. While an hour later in Tirana it is suspected that the next target would have been Roan Brahimi's wife, but in this assassination it is suspected that the target was mistaken and 4 people were injured, including 2 minors, one of whom received serious injuries to the body.

The four people were traveling in a luxury Mercedes Benz G Class and were returning to Tirana from a party where they had been to celebrate the 11th birthday of one of them who was also injured. The vehicle was ambushed by still unidentified people who opened fire with a Kalashnikov rifle from a moving motorcycle. The driver of the G Class, 34-year-old Arens Stafa, performed several maneuvers on the road to escape from the killers and drove towards Lundra. On the road, because he himself was injured, he lost control and collided with another car, and then lost consciousness.

He, a 19-year-old man and two brothers, the sons of the owner of a private security company, aged 11 and 17, were taken to hospital by local residents who then notified the police. Three of the injured are out of danger, while the 11-year-old boy was wounded in the chest and his condition is more serious. The police do not have a concrete investigative lead for the attack on them, as it turned out that they are not problematic people or have criminal records. There are strong suspicions that the attackers may have mistaken their target, writes A2 CNN.

To prove this, investigators verified the people who were moving in the area with almost the same vehicle. One of them is the wife of Roan Brahimi, who previously carried the identity of Sidorel Prendi, who was killed last year in Greece. An hour before the assassination in Tirana, in Lezha, unidentified persons executed the father, Gjovalin Prendi, with a Kalashnikov rifle. The incident took place in his bar in the village of Pllanë. The assassins are suspected of being hired killers.

After the murder of the 64-year-old, police found a burned-out vehicle in Fushë Gjormë that is believed to have belonged to the perpetrators of the crime. As a main lead, investigators have focused on the feud between criminal groups. His son Roan Brahimi is being investigated as the mastermind and involved in several different mafia assassinations that have left several people dead. (A2 Televizion)
