Smajl Latifi asks the Islamic Community to take action against Rahoveci's imam

According to him, such language also constitutes violations of Kosovo's laws, and thus has invited Kosovo authorities to do their job.

Latifi has said that he is deeply moved by the fact that a person under religious clothing is so seriously provoked by citizens' feelings.

Full response:

I am deeply indignant at the calls of Kiimamit Bedri Bytyci, who had found a good reception and treatment in Forte, in line with the best Albanian traditions. His call not to bury the father of martyrs and heroes Hilmi Haradinaj is racist, non-human and incompatible with the basic principles of Islam. Calls like this offend people with noble feelings and homelands.

Knowing in advance that the language of hatred and non-compliance also constitutes violations of the laws of the Republic of Kosovo would have to have law and law organs do their job. This hate language poses a direct threat to the life and health of the Haradinaj family, which makes state intervention necessary.

As president and citizen of the municipality of Rahovec, I am deeply moved by the fact that a person dressed in religious clothing provokes the feelings of our citizens so seriously. Even the Islamic Community would have to take action against imams who broadcast messages of intimidation, hatred and contempt against a man who gave so much to Kosovo's freedom.
