More details are being revealed regarding the serious incident that occurred today at the Court of Appeal of General Jurisdiction, where Elvis Shkambi killed Judge Astrit Kalaja and injured two others.
The author's father, Gjon Shkambi, had declared to the media a few years ago that he was the owner of the former reserve school in Shkodra. In the denunciations he had made to the media, he claimed that he was the owner of the buildings where 31 families lived, and that he had the properties with regular documentation, acquired through judicial processes. At that time, Shkambi was requesting the police and the bailiff to release his properties.
In 1992, 31 families, by decision of the Shkodra Municipality, were placed in the building of the former school of construction reserves. It is believed that this is also the cause of today's event, as the perpetrator himself has admitted the crime at Police Station No. 1. He has admitted the murder and said that he shot the judge because he was losing a property case.
"I shot him because I was losing a trial. I was correct with my papers," he testified at Police Station No. 1.
Judge Astrit Kalaja was killed as soon as he announced the decision and had stood up to leave the courtroom. The suspected perpetrator is Elvis Shkambi, the nephew of Gjon Shkëmbi, who was a party to the trial.
Then, he shot at the opposing party in the trial, father and son, Rakip and Ervis Kurtaj.
