The death of Russian tourist in KSamil, DNA analysis begins

The device that performed DNA tests at the Science Police lab in Tirana is back in operation. The device, which carried out the analysis of DNA samples, was damaged in mid-July, suspending the investigation of several criminal cases, including that of the Russian tourist's death in Ksamil, writes “Panorama”.

The scientific Police's analysis device was damaged in a lamp, making scientific analysis impossible, while it was the only one of its kind in Albania. Because the new lamp is expensive and is found only in the United States, the replacement and then the calibration of it has required about a month.

This delay has caused procrastination of some criminal cases that are under investigation and dealing with DNA analysis. One of their cases is the death of 15-year-old tourist from Russia, Ksenia Ryok.

She found her death in July while on vacation in KSamil, while police placed a suspected man in handcuffs. Ermal Fataj, 31, the leader of a motor vehicle that offered a walk on the islands of Ksamil, is suspected of having his boat hit the Russian teenager's head and chest, which was swimming a few feet off the beach.

The 31-year-old boat engine helices were claimed to have been found by hair hairs, which are being compared to those of the 15-year-old Russian tourist. Only DNA analysis is what finally determines whether hairs belong to the same person. For this reason, also, from the continued insistence of the Russian Embassy on the
Which has demanded the dawning of the event, is decided that the first DNA analysis to be done with the restored equipment, to be the one on the 15-year-old tourist issue.
The results of the tests are expected to be released within a few days, later determining the fate of the criminal case opened by Saranda prosecution against young Ermal Fataj. To him on July 24th, security measures have been imposed in prison for 45 days.
On the day of the event, the Russian tourist has swam away from her mother and lost sight of them. A few minutes later, it has been found that the girl was floating lifeless in the water. This fact has been ascertained by some tourists who have notified the police and later at the scene have approached the girl's mother by swimming.
After performing the autopsy, it turned out that the victim had some deep bruises on his head as well as on the side of his body that caused his death. The investigative group, led by the Saranda Prosecution, has created suspicions that the girl may have been hit by a floating vehicle moving in that area. A large number of boats and boatboats have been observed serving to transport tourists from the coast to the islands of Ksamil. The survey finds that several hairs, similar to those of the 15-year-old victim” were found, the prosecution said.
