Last night after midnight, Hilmi Haradinaj, Ramush Haradinaj's father, has passed away after a serious illness. The news was made known by the prime minister himself on Facebook.

Hilmi was known as a quiet man who had faced many sacrifices in his lifetime. The media reported the moment Ramush Haradinaj was released from prison during the past year, and family emotions had also been seen.

Hilmi, Ramush's father, had burst into tears after receiving news that his son is free, writes Periscope.

Haradinaj had been detained at Switzerland's Basel airport in the French section and had stayed in the city of Strasbourg.

Finally, the Colmar Court had handed down the verdict, not extraditing Haradinaj to Serbia as Serbian authorities had requested, but releasing him. /Periscopi/
