Former Kosovo Police member Shefki Spahiu has been sentenced today to life in prison by the Court in Prizren for killing young Jetmir Aliaj in Suhareka.
After declaring the sentence on his son, Jethmir Aliaj's father, Halil Aliaj has burst into tears within the court.
On the surface, he and other family members are seen comforted by this decision but also grieving over the lives of their son.
Prior to the plea of the trial, Jethmir Aliaj's family had demanded that their son's murderer be sentenced to life in prison.
Otherwise, Shefki Spahiu, at the time of the murder, was a sergeant in the Kosovo Police Department. The event took place on March 17th, 2019, at a casino on the Street of Reshtan in Suhareka. After the shooting, he died, 32-year-old Jethmir Aliyan, who was a casino worker.
According to the indictment, since Shefki Spahiu stayed in the casino, suddenly exploiting the trust and sincerity of Jetmir Aliaj, he had slyly pulled the brandy gun “Glock” that was the official weapon, which he was willing to fire and from a distance of 1 meter had shot the frontal of his head once, causing the victim's death.
On July 30th, the accused, Shefki Spahiu for the first time, has been declared for the event more than a year ago.
The Express newspaper last year reported that former police chief Shefki Spahiu was well known for scandals, years ago burdened charges that he violated two minor girls and even that he had falsified documents and misused official office. /ge/
