Ymer for the murder of Mon Balaj and Arben Geladin: The killers never came to justice

Ex-Deputet and Vetevendosje leader Visar Ymeri has reacted through a writing on the 14th anniversary of the assassination of Arben Xhedeen and Mon Balaj.

Ymer, in his Facebook profile, has said that on February 10th 2007, the Romanian unit within UNMIK, had criminally intervened.

Next, Ymer has written that the killers are not yet brought to justice, and that this crime as many other crimes is going unpunished.

This crime, in the course of many other crimes, is going unpunished. And the impunity of crime is recognition and acceptance. For every crime. Justice for February 10th was needed and should be the responsibility of each Kosovo government. This crime can't be concealed or signed”, it wrote Visar Ymer on Facebook.

He also said that at the time, protesters wanted their voice heard, but that the power that the majority had did not care about that word of protesters.

His full post:

Fourteen years passed. On February 10th 2007, there was a criminal intervention by the Romanian unit within UNMIK special police, which killed Mon Balaj and Arben Xhedindin, as well as injured 80 other protesters.

The killers were never brought to justice. Police never explained the reason they resorted to nonprofessional violence against protesters. U n NMIC was forced to accept guilt from the advisory panel for human rights. But, until today, no criminal responsibility yet.

This crime, in the course of many other crimes, is going unpunished. And the impunity of crime is recognition and acceptance. For every crime. Justice for February 10th was needed and should be the responsibility of each Kosovo government. This crime cannot be concealed or recorded.

February 10th presents a clear case of democratic law to protest on one side compared to the murderous dimension of power that opposes that right. So on one side the protesters who wanted to hear their word regardless of numbers, and on the other, power that didn't care about that word, because they had the power. And democracy is measured precisely by the way you treat the minority (in this political case). And to what extent you consider the other right to speak, even when you disagree with what he says. Even at this point justice and the February 10th murders are measured. Because this is also a February 10th order.
