Two years after a serious crime in Zall-Xhuxhë of Mirdita, where the young Eri Zefi was killed, the Lezha Prosecutor's Office requested Tuesday the sentence of 30 years in prison of the friend who ambushed him.

After the serious incident, the Police arrested 42-year-old Mikel (Gjovalin) Alia, who was charged with murder in collaboration. This citizen is accused that on October 2, 2019, he ambushed his childhood friend, Eri Zefi, to execute him.

The final conclusions were given by the prosecutor Erjon Shehaj, who has investigated the case and will now be the court that will decide on the fate of the 42-year-old.

According to the investigative file, 42-year-old Alia had asked his childhood friend to help him steal a quantity of cannabis in the mountainous area of ​​Mirdita, where the crime took place.

To reach them, the Lezha Prosecutor's Office asked the arrested Mikel (Gjovalin) Alia to cooperate with justice in exchange for facilities. But the 42-year-old has consistently denied any connection to the murder by pleading not guilty.

On his part, Eri Zefi was executed with 6 bullets, 4 of which hit him in the head, while the other 2 in the chest. The murder turns out to have happened during the night of October 1, 2019, exactly at the place where the body of the victim was found in a canal 50 meters away from the National Road.
