Noble citizens of Artemis,

I would like to announce that, according to media reports, the candidate for municipal assemblies from the Vetevendosje Movement list, Rinas Zeqiri, has been arrested by Kosovo Police under suspicion of involvement in the planting of narcotic plants.

Rinas has joined our list just about a month ago, with personal initiative and a desire to contribute. He has not previously been an activist or a member of the Vetevendosje Movement. We have recently known and believed that as a young man willing to work, he could make a contribution to the Assembly. Unfortunately, his presentation resulted from our expectations.

However, we welcome the Kosovo Police action and believe justice will act. For this act, we seek full and clear responsibility from any illegal action.
