Through a short post on social media, Prime Minister Edi Rama commemorated the violent protest of January 21, 2011, during which 4 protesters were killed and several others were injured.
The head of government writes alongside the published photo that those who are delaying justice for January 21st should not forget that the children of martyrs are becoming parents.
"Justice delays but never forgets," the people say, and today, whoever is delaying justice for January 21st should not forget that the children of martyrs are becoming parents while waiting for justice," Rama writes.
Aleks Nika, Ziver Veizi, Hekuran Deda and Faik Myrtaj were killed on "Deshmorët e Kombit" Boulevard during opposition protests on January 21, 2011.
Even though 14 years have passed since that day, the family members say they are still not seeing justice for their relatives.
“January 21” is officially a case being investigated by SPAK. The Special Structure Against Corruption and Organized Crime has registered a criminal investigation into the murder of Aleks Nika, as well as the injury of Artes Dybel, Ilia Qesko, and Ilia Papa during the 2011 violent protest in front of the prime minister’s office.
The case was registered by SPAK in implementation of the Supreme Court's decision of March this year, which ordered the Special Structure to investigate the complaint made by Aleks Nika's wife, Rajmonda Nika. (A2 Televizion)
