Korça Prosecution Office has concluded the investigations and referred the minor, identified as Enejdo Guri, to trial for the criminal offense of “murder under qualifying circumstances,” as stipulated in while Edison Guri, Roland Guri, and Flori Çela have been referred to trial on charges of “obstruction of justice,” under Article 301 of the Criminal Code. 

The investigations into criminal proceeding no. 1155/2025, established that on August 14, 2025, at approximately 17:30, police authorities were notified that a 15-year-old minor, identified as E.Xh. and residing in the village of Zvirinë, had been transported in critical condition to the Regional Hospital of Korça. Despite receiving medical treatment, the minor passed away due to injuries inflicted by a sharp object (knife) to the chest.

Initial investigative actions established that the incident took place in the outdoor area of the “Amar” bar in the village of Pirg, where the victim became physically involved in a conflict with another minor, identified as E.G., who also resides in the same village.
Review of the footage from the bar’s security cameras confirmed the physical altercation between the victim and the suspected perpetrator. The video clearly shows E.G. holding a knife, chasing the victim among the veranda tables, and after a struggle that led both to fall to the ground, striking the victim with the sharp object and causing the fatal injury.

Furthermore, investigations by Korça Prosecution Office revealed that E.G., the father of the accused minor, upon learning of his son’s involvement in the conflict in the village of Pirg, failed to cooperate with the authorities and instead took deliberate actions to impede the prompt and complete uncovering of the truth.
Analysis of witness statements and footage evidence indicates that E.G., in complicity with R.G. (his brother and the victim’s uncle), F.Ç., and the perpetrator himself, actively engaged in actions intended to create a false narrative, aimed at diverting attention from the original criminal incident.
At the same time, it was substantiated that E.G. was aware of the concealment and tampering of the primary physical evidence, specifically the knife used by the perpetrator. Evidence shows that the knife was not seized at the crime scene but was instead taken and subsequently cleaned by his brother, R.G.
Based on the foregoing, and pursuant to Articles 327(6) (b) and 331 of the Criminal Procedure Code, Korça Prosecution Office seeks to refer the following individuals to trial:

E.G., for the criminal offense of “Murder under Qualifying Circumstances” and “Driving vehicles inappropriately,” under Articles 79/a/ë and 291 of the Criminal Code;
E.G., for the criminal offense of “Obstruction of Justice,” under Article 301 of the Criminal Code;
R.G., for the offenses of “Obstruction of Justice,” “Failure to Report a Crime,” and “Supporting the Perpetrator,” as set out in Articles 300, 301, and 302 of the Criminal Code; and
F.Ç. for the offenses of “Failure to Report a Crime” and “Supporting the Perpetrator,” under Articles 300 and 302(2) of the Criminal Code.
