A few months after the murder of Fridman Xhaferaj in Korçë and Çajup Selimin in Tepelën, the group of murders led by Laert Haxhiu, got ready to execute another person.
It is about Alban Semaku, otherwise known in Lushnja with the nickname "Chinese", who had just been released from prison and had caught the eye of Laert Haxhiu.
According to the justice witness, Laert Haxhiu, he said that Mermali was part of Lushnja's gang and killed the people of his family, on the order of Aldo Bare.
In fact, in 1998, Elton Mermali had participated in the murder of Bledar Haxhiu, a relative of Laert Haxhiu, who, after being executed in an ambush, was disfigured by pouring dozens of bullets over the dead body.
In this assassination attempt in Lushnja, Artan Sulçe was also killed.
According to journalist Elton Qyno, in order to kill Alban Semaku, a plan has been established to lie to him about the consumption of heroin. As Laerti's group knew that Semaku was addicted and consumed drugs.
"...we had learned that Mermalin had come out of prison and was drinking heroin with some boys from the neighborhood, but also with me. That day I was wearing a boxer vest. I knew Mermal early and he was a heroin user. Having information that he wanted to drink heroin, I lied to him by telling him that I have hidden heroin somewhere, let's go get it and drink it. Mermali admitted that on the evening of June 13, 2021, I drove to his neighborhood. As soon as he saw me, he got into the car himself and then I headed towards the road that leaves Lushnja. We went to Peqin, and on the edge of a wall we went to some brambles, lying to Mermal that the heroin was there. It was all a sham. In the search to find the heroin, Mermali himself was involved, who just lowered his head to see if there was heroin, we shot him in the back of the head. One bullet to the head and two to the body, to make sure he was dead. Then we left, leaving his body there among the thorns..."- said the associate of the Prosecution, Artan Tafani.
For this murder, the prosecutor's office of Elbasan has arrested Laert Haxhiu, Lulzim Spahina and Artan Tafani as executors. Three people have been charged with "premeditated murder" carried out in collaboration and "unlicensed possession of weapons".
