Journalist Klodiana Lala reports that, in his testimony, Bajri said Aldo Gjini had asked to meet him and had appeared in his cell together with Jurgen Zotaj.
According to Bajri, during the meeting, Zotaj handed him a telephone connected to Ibrahim Liçi. The latter, according to Bajri’s testimony, issued a direct threat against him.
“That’s the end of your life,” Liçi is said to have told him over the phone, according to Bajri. Bajri further claims that, at that moment, Jurgen Zotaj attempted to attack him with a homemade knife.
“Aldo Gjini asked to meet me. He came to my cell together with Jurgen Zotaj. Zotaj handed me a telephone; Ibrahim Liçi was on the line. Liçi told me over the phone: ‘That’s the end of your life.’ At that moment, Zotaj attempted to attack me with a knife,” he testified.
During the struggle, Bajri and Zoto were injured and transported for medical assistance. Following the incident, the Disciplinary Commission at the General Directorate of Prisons decided to dismiss eight police officers and refer them to the Prosecutor’s Office for abuse of office.
The Service for Internal Affairs and Complaints in Prisons is investigating to determine the responsibility of the police officers who allowed inmates and pretrial detainees to move from one building to another, as well as the fact that they had a telephone, an item strictly prohibited in cells.
The Disciplinary Commission ordered three months of isolation for Gjini and Zotaj. Aldo Gjini was transferred to Drenovë, while Zoto was transferred to Burrel Prison.
