Family members call for whitening the fate of the dead and punishment for criminals

The cold and rainy weather was not feeling seed mothers crying near their children's graves, which the Milosevic regime took to their best age.

Today, like any other day, they are remembering their children killed, but today they are all gathered together in the complex on the 20th anniversary of the Massacre of Meya and the Day of Undiscovered Persons.

One of the victims was the late Bajrush Avdyli. He was not even 16 when Serbs executed him in Meja.

His mother, Tijah Adam, was hard standing today, near the son's grave.

Tears cannot hold them until flowers are being placed on his picture by family members.

My son took me to Meya until he was 16 years old. He was a school student. May God give this place pleasure to others, and their blood is paid for, because no one is looking at them or getting tired of them”, she said.

She said April 27th could never forget.

When we don't forget this day, the day for us is as long as we're alive to remember. It's a very painful day, see how much man is, all tearfully in his eyes we've gone to Albania, all tearfully on page”, she said.

Next to her stood the husband, Riza Avdyli, who said Serbia must be held accountable for this massacre.

War also has its laws, in war the army when they surrender doesn't kill the opponent, disarmed, handed over and imprisoned. And here we were all delivered, and massacre us, that doesn't know how. There is no one to complain about, Serbia should be given a big account of the job”, he says.

Along with family members to mark the 20th anniversary of the Massacre of Meya and the Day of the Undiscovered was Nystrete Kumnova, who heads the association “Mothers' calls”.

She said April 27th is a heavy day for all of Kosovo.

According to her, it is a relief when dates are marked and they are all together to commemorate, but it should not be left on the record of these dates.

The “is not just to gather at specific dates, this issue should be on the agenda every day, until criminals are sentenced to justice and return to us 1200 Albanians still in Serbia's mass cemetery. The international community, even our institutions, are conditioned to condition Serbia on the return of our most loved ones, and criminals to be punished, to receive the deserved” sentence, she says.

She hopes it will be achieved to raise criminal charges for all Serbian criminals.

To mark this day, associations of families of missing persons from around Kosovo went to Meja on Saturday.

Bajram Qerinaj from “Parents' voice” said family anger does not heal with words, but with work and dawning the fate of missing persons.

I don't know today what to say but to say we've made these walls, these graveyards, and I don't know about a law, and I don't think two years of mouth bites have been cut off by family. Frustrated, full, upset by all that their families have, not spokenly, but by working and whiteling the fate of the homeless, there are no family members who are at ease until the fate of the dead is white. It's good to remind these people who have gone, and it's good to examine where their families are, in what situation”, he says.

At the Meja Memorial complex, Kosovo's prime minister had organised the memorial academy, where family members, in addition, addressed Kosovo's president, Kosovo Assembly Speaker and the head of the Gjakova municipality.

This year, an American ambassador visited Meya for the first time on April 27th. Phillip Costnett spoke to his family, where he said the Mass massacre was terrible.
