Five members of the Presidency are expelled Yesterday the Socialists’ Steering Committee voted. The congress convocation is also announced TIRANE - Fatos Nano, from prison, is changing the leadership of the Socialist Party. A vote of confidence motion, proposed by the imprisoned socialist leader himself, for the presidency of this party made it possible for around 90 Socialists to vote by secret ballot, which resulted in the removal of 5 members from the top leadership of the PS. Bashkim Zeneli, Fatmir Kumbaro, Xhevat Lloshi, Luan Shabohllari and Mago Lakrori will no longer be part of the socialist circle of friends. Through a secret ballot, the General Steering Committee of the PS ranked them at the bottom of the list. The expelled figures will now remain members of this committee. Why Nano decided on the changes ARIAN ÇANI TIRANE - In the secret vote of the highest Socialist forum, five members of the presidency are removed from office. More than a declared force, what happened yesterday in the PS resembles a parallel campaign. The requests for dismissal came so that they would go closer to the people and work more to offer them alternatives. But the message did not go through that, even from Ben’s prison, the message remained: "The Presidency of the PS should be renewed". Fatos Nano took the first concrete step, perhaps unexpected for many party members. Yesterday, while the future vote was being tested, Nano asked everyone how trustworthy the PS leaders are. Why did this change happen? Why now? "To strengthen the base," Nano said yesterday in a coded message to the BBC. It seems Nano has decided to personally lead his party’s election campaign from Benca in Tepelena. More than a possible setback for the five members removed from the party leadership, the imprisoned leader will be concerned that people accept the newly elected leaders into their homes. Yesterday’s deputies in the PS presidency are the elected representatives of the socialist grassroots. On page 3 Yesterday, the meeting of the PS Steering Committee.

Yesterday in front of a foreign embassy in the Albanian capital A passerby saves the beauty Yesterday in front of a foreign embassy in the Albanian capital The Miss’s golden necklace is stolen A passerby saves the beauty TIRANE - The thieves stole the Miss’s golden necklace, the contestant was in the capital this morning and the victim was Hedera Hoxha, known during the competition years. Could the second one, in the pre-show contest? had "lost" without leaving a trace, the necklace of the follower near Sidorola Kola. A chance encounter brought back around Hoxha’s "face" the precious gift that nature had granted her through beauty, when she had not yet reached sixteen. The event, still unusual, happened yesterday in front of one of the foreign embassies in the capital. The robbers had laid their hands on the beauty’s mother’s neck, when she was apparently preparing to get on a bus to obtain a visa. However, they may not have valued the necklace’s worth, worth two million, of the "prey" they had "appropriated" for only a few moments. One "trust" assistant had "snatched" Hedera, who was being watched in surprise and without suspicion, and one of them dropped to the ground precisely the "gift" with which beauty had "rewarded" Hedera, when she had counted a little more than fifteen years of her life. However, the robber’s "ticket" did not end without "success". A sum of money and some other object, now missing from the neck that had been arranged in the morning. No one, therefore, would have thought that the "adventure" would first try to "artificially" overturn the jury’s prejudiced judgment, which in the Italian company for a "barbarity" with a golden necklace. P.re. Miss Hedera Hoxha

HISTORY OTRANTO - The Carabinieri report the beating of Albanian children. The brave little ones had set off on the road of clandestine emigration, sneaking onto the Vlorë-Otranto ferry, but upon arrival three children were discovered by the ship’s owner, an Arab. "As for these barbarians? padoj? the owner of the ship "Niobe 1", Dib Omar, began beating the poor children, whose only fault was their naive desire to imitate grown-ups. The clandestine trip to Italy. The investigation began Monday morning, after the complaint made by the coast guards against the Arab owner. The Carabinieri had discovered around 15 young Albanian children, hidden next to the Vlorë-Otranto ship "Niob 1", which had arrived on the other shore on Sunday evening. Three of them were found on deck and needed a doctor’s intervention. Thus the little ones, wounded by the cruel hand of the businessman, whose business and reputation had been "sweetened" by the small and unwanted visitors, ... They were then taken to the Red Cross center in Kéristasi, where Renato Amendola, 12 years old, Elidon Dules and Ervishi Modo, both 14 years old, were given first aid for the serious hand injury caused by the Arab "businessman". The children told how, together with 12 other children, they had boarded the ferry secretly, hiding under the trucks. During the night they were discovered and beaten by the ship’s owner and his servants with a thick iron rod. A day of the little ones’ "freedom" ended. The ship "Niob 1" had left from Vlorë on Monday and returned to Otranto within the day. It was met by the Carabinieri to clarify the matter, since he was accused. The great cost afterward was that of the owner, who in front of the police did not hesitate to say that the children had been discovered by the Italian authorities themselves, the businessman? The reason lies in the argument put forward by Dona’s ticket, which raises the question: was the Carabinieri guard right to discover it, but would his business perhaps be better protected if he kept a few clandestine and iron children for decades? Origin? Now the owner, Dib Omar, of the ship must answer to the investigators and the Italian police...
