Three months after the death of Altin Kryeziu, a police officer who was struck by a car while on duty in Malishevë, his family continues to struggle with his absence.

Aulonë Kryeziu posted a tribute to her brother on social media. “Time moves on, but my heart remains where I lost you. Your absence is a pain that cannot be healed, and my longing for you will live in every beat of my heart,” she wrote.

Aulona said she still has not grown used to living without him and that the pain of his loss remains difficult to bear. She ended her tribute with the words: “Life is very hard without you, my brother.”

Altin Kryeziu served at the police station in Malishevë. On August 16, while carrying out his official duties on Ibrahim Mazreku Street, he was struck by a vehicle. He died from his injuries on August 23.

Altin Kryeziu was buried with state honors on August 24 in the village of Bubavec, Malishevë.
