43 years after killing the Gervala brothers and Kadri Zeka

January 17, 1982, is the day when brothers Yusuf and Bardho Gervala and Kadri Zeka were killed in an assassination.

Although 43 years have passed, that day remains forever fresh in its mourning not only for families but also for a number of people who have been spiritually and organized with activists.

The attempt on the two Gervala brothers and Kadri Zeka took place in Untergroupbach, Germany. By German state authority it has been reported that unknown assassins have killed three Yugoslavs and that this was the new climax in the secret war in which Yugoslav security agents and power opponents fight among them.

After Croats in exile, the Belgrade government has declared the bloody fight to Albanians coming from Kosovo. It happened as the driver of the car ( FALSE 316, license plates: HN CY 353) pulled the car out of the garage, pointing it upside down toward the crossroads.

In snow weather, somewhere in the first 40 meters of the car has stopped since a building site on the right, a person from a distance of three meters has fired. In addition, another person has hunted and approached her to prove that they have succeeded.

Neighbors, afraid of shootings, see two men of the male sex leaving. The car is still on, since Bardesh had his foot on the gas pedal. As a result, the car has moved on until it crashes into a garage.

During this time, the driver is dead, and after the crash, the engine is shut down. At the scene, police have found the driver of the car, Barhios Grovall, 31, shot by six bullets, Kadri Zekana, killed by two bullet shots in the body and Yusuf Gervala, 36, also severely injured by two bullet shots.

Der Spiegel (25 January 1982) for the crime motive writes that the immediate identification of the victims has clarified their motive and political direction: <x0-> Jugoslav in an exotic country belonging to the Albanian nationality from the province of Kosovo to the south of the Balkan state, and that all three activists against the Belgrade rule of”. There were also signs for the perpetrators of the assassination.

At the scene, Yusuf Gervalla, who later died, had whispered to police “was UDB”.

Twelve times had been fired on all three men by .765 calibre pistols, ten shots had hit the heart, lungs and neck. A policeman at the scene says: “The whole thing looked like after an execution”.

It was a method used by the secret service, as the sniper and police instructor from Stuttgart, Siegfried Hubner said, should be shot by four bullets, “t to capture the victim if she stays, so to bring her down and make her unable to fight, and then the fourth necessary and deadly reweigh”.

Time and assassination were the culmination of Yugoslav secret service disputes with opponents of the regime in the outside world in those years.
