234 people reported missing in one year

Among the cases that made the biggest fuss is that of a woman from Pristina.

Remzije Mustafa was found alive eight days after leaving home.

But this case does not mark the only case in 2019 that Kosovo Police reported missing.

A total of 234 missing persons cases have been reported, based on police statistics from January through the end of November.

Linked to this large number of missing security connoisseurs in Kosovo, Avni Islami tells Kosovo that this phenomenon has not only affected Kosovo.

According to him, this phenomenon should not be of concern only for Kosovo security organs, but also for all Kosovo society.

The leading cause of this phenomenon in our society according to Islam is the economic-Social factor.

Islam says increasing security through increased cameras on major roads also increases security in the country, and prevents these cases of human extinction.

“Seriously this phenomenon of youth extinction, but other ages are a little bit disturbing when in our media it is heard that a girl or a boy or a different age has disappeared, and in most cases we have seen that kidnappings have occurred for various causes and therefore in the first look it seems that Kosovo is not safe, given that they are not immediately found.... I think that Kosovo is a safe place and there is no room for panic, but given that the social and economic situation has made it its own and there are cases where they commit suicide and then they find themselves at a much later time... We have to increase the controls in general to have in vitral objects and on major security cameras, and in this way it would help and civil society not to make such case” happen, he said.

Kosovo's missing persons' phenomenon has been explained by sociologist Fadil Maloku, under which the moral and economic crisis Kosovo is going through is bringing the consequences of people's disappearance.

He even says to Kosovo that over the next few years this phenomenon will mark growth if security institutions do not create mechanisms that control such deviable phenomena for our society.

And in these two decades of post-war we're living in a completely different environment, in a new set of values, and as a consequence of these new values that have come up with changing the system and creating some pre-pre-pre-a-pre-pre-datives -- a new model of political, economic, social behavior -- these values have also come, which in the Western world, of course, are sanctioned and very problematic... In our society we need to create mechanisms that control and manage these phenomena and phenomena that more should be under the care of state institutions”, he said.

According to data in the Kosovo Police provided by Kosovo Preress the largest number of cases reported as missing persons have been done in the region of Pristina, where at this time of year 76 cases have been reported, the second listed the Pec region with 46 cases, followed by Prizren's with 34 cases, then the 27-case Gjakova region, the Gjilan one with 22 cases, while in the southern part of Mitrovica, only 19 cases were reported as missing persons.
