Mystery surrounding the enigmatic figure unmasked by Bezhani “We know who he is, but he will disappear on his own” We inherited him from our predecessors The Cabinet Nano spokesperson: SPIES, BETWEEN POLITICS AND BEZHANI Arban Hasani The files have credentials, hospitality toward the characters, though? [Partly illegible] ... TIRANA—“Spies” are causing concern even within the ranks of the government. A person holding a senior position in Prime Minister Nano’s administration has been identified in recent days as politically “unsuitable” by the Commission for the Verification of the Purity of Figures. The Commission Bezhani has officially notified him of this and, at the latter’s request, the government’s “sinner” will be obliged to leave his senior state position by 10 February. According to senior government officials, the “burned” man has agreed to do so within this deadline. The unfortunate man in the new government is a career government official, as he is said to have held senior state positions in previous administrations of the government and the Albanian state. “Help Danish” reached 10 million TIRANA - Just one week was enough for the circle of people who learned about the troubles of painter Danish Jukniu to raise ...

TIRANA - Just one week was enough for the circle of people who learned about the troubles of painter Danish Jukniu to come together in a true show of solidarity. TIRANA - come together in a true show of solidarity. We, the group of people who started this humanitarian initiative, feel at ease today. For many reasons. Until now, we had doubted that there was anyone left in our country capable of being moved by human suffering. This week has proved the opposite, and that has brought us relief. The large sum Danish needed for the operation on his ear and spinal column has been raised at an almost unbelievable speed. The Ministry, small children, businesspeople, couples in love, elderly people shuffling along in their solitude, the painter’s friends and companions—all have rushed to help the painter who is suffering, paralyzed. In this time of gunfire and enmity, in this time of resentment and hatred, we had begun to forget that Albanians have a spirit that can lead them to stand by one another in times of misfortune. Raising the sum of 10 million lire in record time has increased our hope that this country can make it, thanks to the wonderful people it has raised. Many others are ready to contribute further to Danish’s life. So that the news about Danish can reach his family. Thank you all. Thank you.

A fatal “flight” by an elderly woman TIRANË - A 70-year-old woman plunges down the elevator shaft. Wanting to go down from the fourth floor, an elderly woman at Hospital 1 in the capital opened the door and put her foot forward to get into the elevator. But, not paying attention, she did not notice that the elevator car had remained stuck on the first floor, and thus ended up on the roof of the elevator. Her lifeless body was found on Friday at around 7 in the morning by hospital employees. A tragic incident at Tirana’s Hospital 1. A 70-year-old woman has died after falling into an elevator that was not working. Like all the other things that are neglected here, hospital equipment—which, besides being necessary, can no longer be described as a luxury—either does not work or works only superficially. This time, indifference, which in fact did not want to be called excessive, has also claimed a victim. The issue was the faulty operation of the elevator at Hospital 1, which consequently took the life of an elderly woman. The victim, who fell from the fourth floor, was around 70 years old. After opening the door in the elevator wall, the elderly woman did not notice that the car had not yet arrived. Fully convinced that her next step would take her inside the car, she put her foot forward and, within seconds, found herself flying through the air. She fell hard onto the roof of the elevator car; nobody heard the noise. It was only on Friday morning that hospital employees found the 70-year-old woman’s lifeless body. From the moment the body was pulled out from the upper part of the elevator, she has not been identified. The authorities were also notified immediately, and they brought the investigation team to the scene. After the initial expert examination, which investigated the circumstances in which the victim might have fallen, it was established that the elevator was not working. Regarding the elevator’s shutdown, the employees responsible for it should have notified all the hospital patients not to use it. Therefore, legally, responsibility falls on them, since their negligence caused the still-unidentified 70-year-old woman to lose her life. er.dl
