Young Man Involved in Tirana Bartender's Murder Left in Prison

Tirana Court has left this Friday in prison Nikoll Sherrniku, suspected of being involved in the Don Bosco incident where the bartender Mimoza Paja got killed.

This security measure was communicated to him in his cell as he has been arrested since August 2022.

Sherrniku was caught in an armored vehicle while moving armed, while the Police announced that they had prevented an assassination attempt at that time.

He is accused of having provided the perpetrators of Don Bosco with the foreign license plates that were placed on the BMW type vehicle, with which the executioners committed the crime and then burned it.

Llicense plate turns out to have been obtained in Germany by Sherrnik, which was confirmed through the order letter received from the German authorities and the testimony of an Albanian who explained that Sherrnik received 3 license plates in Germany.

According to the prosecution, he kept  these license plates to be used later in criminal events and for this reason he is suspected of the criminal offense of "creating the conditions for the commission of murder".

However, he has refused to give explanations about who are the people to whom he handed over the license plate.

Sherrnik surrendered in December 2020, after being accused of giving a vehicle to Brilant Martinaj, who at that time was accused of murdering police officer Xjulio Prela.

A month after Brilant Martinaj was executed in the Fushë-Kruja overpass attempt together with his two friends, Besmir Hoxha and Dikler Vata, Nikoll Sherrniku was arrested while driving around with military ammunition and an armored vehicle, while it is suspected that he had set out to commit an assassination.
