🧑‍⚖️ Espionage

A major legal development has unfolded with the Special Prosecutor's Office filing an indictment against Fatmir Sheholli for alleged espionage and blackmail. Sheholli is suspected of having been recruited by a foreign intelligence agency to provide information about the country, and of extorting a person for over 13,000 euros. In other significant domestic news, the Court of Peja acquitted a father and two sons in the 2021 triple murder case in Gllogjan. Meanwhile, the ongoing political deadlock sees the Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK) continuing protests outside the government, demanding the resumption of the Assembly session. Former Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) Vice-Chairman Eqrem Kryeziu has passed away. Socially, concerns are rising over the declining number of teachers in schools, which is reportedly burdening municipal budgets. The political landscape also saw former Prime Minister Isa Mustafa call for a coalition between PDK and Vetëvendosje (LVV) to move the country forward.
