Only 11 people in prison

Three people released: Arrest under condition for the others (Page 2) The northerners do not want the state The only cause and the only winner in yesterday’s event in Shkodër is a point lost for Albania. The challenge to the state by the PS, which had begun openly in the free market a week earlier, later degenerated into the first shedding of blood. It was not the consequence of any such straightforward awakening. The reason? It is known, because it degraded from a local conflict into an open challenge to the state. More than the fight against the submachine gunner, the blind spots of both sides, where one life was lost and thus the escalation became even greater, namely against a public object and institution in the name of a "revenge" for the fellow villagers, who according to them had been mistreated. In any case, even without going into this somewhat banal conflict, at the center of this clash are the forces of order and especially the crime bosses. This becomes understandable because the main target of the armed demonstration was the police station, where all of this movement was also reported. It is nevertheless understandable that the scenario of this conflict also implies some kind of conspiracy direction. Turned around, even dressing the aggressors, left as former criminals, but their principal instigators will surely be the same ones behind the movements, or still behind the political words and comments. In any case, the aim is clear. Yesterday’s step in Shkodër and its other reason is the return of the protagonism of a group, the testing of the possibility of the PS, but nothing else. Such actions and reactions of darkness are more than enough, mainly from the excitement. So far, not to say that there is no further question. Since every time, alongside the field distorted by a murdered police chief, at least the calm in the country’s circulation seems fully deserved and it would be good if the organizers of local militancy understood that too. And in this case, and no more than that. That Albania has no need for such challenges was gently made clear by yesterday’s events. That is all. The message by which the authors of such acts are shown has made it difficult to be called clearer. The government and the police operation will intensify in the coming days. If this situation leads to hasty conclusions, even in political marches and especially in analogies and whatever with the means of violence in the name of a state and not the opposite, it is transmitted to the UÇJ. Otherwise the file may be dismantled.
