Prime Minister Edi Rama recalled yesterday the barbaric violence against him by Sali Berisha's government.
Nikoll Lesi, invited to "Albania Live" on Top Channel, spoke precisely about the day that Edi Rama was barbarically raped.
He confessed that he saw Rama lying in the hospital covered in blood, while adding that SHIK did not allow doctors to give the current prime minister a tetanus shot.
Lesi emphasized that Rama was raped by Sali Berisha's regime, while adding that it was a political blow, as Edi Rama was a critical voice of the system at that time.
"" Koha Jonë"" was then the only independent newspaper against the Berisha regime. I want to talk a little about the historical context of the time when there were no social networks or the internet.
'Koha Jonë' had a large number of journalists and intellectuals, among them was Edi Rama. He came from Paris from time to time. He worked from 1992-1997 as an analyst for the newspaper. In that period (1997), one of the voices that was against the times was Edi Rama.
His pen was and is golden. His writings touched the core of the corrupt system. On January 22, 1997, we were told that Rama had been hit. We took a car from the time of Enver. It was a state of curfew. The Republican Guard and SHIK were making the law at that time. Edi Rama was lying down, bleeding. It was a political blow. I was a witness to the time. The doctors should have given him a tetanus shot, we asked them why they weren't doing it and they told us that they had, but some SHIK members wouldn't allow Rama to get a tetanus shot. Martin Leka, who was with me that night, said he knew a pharmacist, where we got the tetanus shot.
The next day, Fatos Lubonja wrote an article, which was sold as photocopies. The event that happened to Rama was a signal to us that the crime of power had come down to the streets, to strike. In March 1997, the editorial office of the newspaper “Koha Jonë” was burned down. At that time, Rama was an analyst who wrote his own opinions, but I do not believe that he had any ambitions for politics. His pen was brilliant.
The photo is a document to verify the regime. A regime that ended in March 1997.
"To work as a journalist in that era, you had to think about death. I made an acceptable mistake by getting into politics ," Lesi said.
