Kurti calls for action within 72 hours in high-risk domestic violence cases

Following the killing of Arlinda Zekaj in Vitomirica, Peja, Prime Minister Albin Kurti gave the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Justice 72 hours to take action. The measures were made public on Monday during an extraordinary session of the Assembly, which was convened in connection with the case. According to Kurti’s demands, the police must urgently review all active cases assessed as high-risk. For each case, the security measures, the responsible official, and cooperation with institutions at the central and local levels must be documented. The process must also include verifying the implementation of protection orders and the response to signals from electronic monitoring.
