Eleven Women Killed in Albania During 2023

With the murder of Luljeta Preza in Durrës, the number of victims in 22 criminal events of 2023 has increased to 27.

The alarming fact is that 11 of these victims are women, who were killed by their husbands, brothers-in-law, and even their children.

The first criminal event for 2023 will start with the murder of a woman. Xhevit Sinani executes his wife Zeqine Sinani and brother Shaqir Sinani with an ax in Gramsh on January 27, for weak motives.

The most serious event was certainly that of March 1 in the capital, where Dan Hutra killed Mevlute Hysa and Hasime Dafku, respectively the sister and sister-in-law of his wife, as well as Etleva Kurti, the sister of Vladimir Kurti, with whom he had problems in prison.

The crime would hit a woman again on March 12, where in fact the mafia assassination was launched against a person with a criminal record and his family members, but the victim remained Mimoza Paja, who worked as a waitress in the target bar of the killers in the Don Bosko area.

In the early hours of the morning of April 8, the Shkoza area would be disturbed. Ronald Sinani entered the room of his sister-in-law Migena Sinani and shot her in the head with a pistol while she was sleeping. Without even passing a few seconds, the perpetrator commits suicide with the crime weapon, leaving the victim's children and his elderly parents who witnessed the event shocked.

The men's hate for their sisters-in-law would be moved to Elbasan, where on May 17 Alma Qevani was killed by Tefik Tashi, a person who spent most of his time drunk.

Even more shocking was the event of June 3 in Përmet where Albi Muhollari strangled his mother Zeniate Muhollari. He had recently returned from America and was allegedly suffering from mental health problems.

On July 1, Marjola Myrtollari would surrender in the fight for her life after almost 1 month in a coma, as she was shot with a knife by her husband, Aleko Murtollari, after a conflict in their apartment in Korcë.

July would count another female victim. On July 29 - Luiza Mullalli is killed in Maliq by her husband Gjergj Mullalli, who threw her into a septic tank after having killed her. After a few hours of escape, the perpetrator commits suicide.

The 11th female victim for 2023 is Luljeta Preza. The young woman was found dead under the Dajlani Bridge, where she was shot with a knife by the 2 perpetrators Aldo Brahimi and Ylli Grabovari after a conflict for weak motives while consuming drugs together.
