The September 8 massacre in Shkodra has raised questions for the investigative group that is dealing with the investigation of the crime with 2 victims and 2 others injured and that targeted Denis Bajri's brother, Erogen Vaso (Bajrovic). The show "Në Shënjestër" published data from the police file according to which, in this massacre, it is suspected that Ragip Gila's collaborator is Barush Bregu, also known as Bajram Bregu, as well as a 17-year-old.
Both are wanted as associates of Ragip Gila, on charges of 'Providing conditions and material means to commit murder', 'Unauthorized possession and production of weapons, explosive weapons and ammunition' and 'Theft'.
Barush Bregu's criminal record is extensive and he is considered one of the most problematic exponents of the criminal world. Bregu, according to investigators, is a connection to the much-wanted Ibrahim Lici. In 2016, Barush Bregu was sentenced to 4 years in prison for drugs and illegal possession of weapons. In 2018, his fingerprints were discovered on a weapon among an arsenal found at the Lici group's bases, which were searched after the murder of Fatbardh Lici, Ibrahim Lici's uncle, when the police went to check after the serious incident.
In March 2019, Ibrahim and Astrit Bilali, the father and uncle of Astmer Bilali, were executed in Shkodra, the latter known as the armed wing of the Bajra, and suspicions fell on Ibrahim Lici, while Barush Bregu was suspected of being an accomplice. But there were no official charges against them. In 2024, Barush Bregu escaped police pursuit after crashing his official vehicle and fleeing, the investigative file states. It is not known whether Ragip Gila was invested by the Lici family to settle scores with the already declared rival family member, Bajri, in this case Erogen Bajrovic, and why exactly he was chosen.
Is this a known form of retaliation, for the honor that he, being quickly released from the cell where he was after the operation codenamed 'False Image', where he was arrested in 2023 while he had turned his house into a criminal base, which was discovered by the police after his sister-in-law denounced that her brother was raping her? Is Ragip Gila a professional hired killer, or does his failure in the latest massacre in the city where he was in the role of the shooter, completely destroy this track?
And should SPAK now take charge of this file and turn it into a penitent of justice, perhaps with the aim of shedding light on many other unsolved murders that have occurred in this city over the past 7 years, with dozens of victims. Where Ragip Gila may have knowledge of many of these crimes.
The feud between the Bajri tribe from Dobraçi and the Lici tribe from Kirasi erupted after the placement of a remote-controlled mine on Lulzim Kulla's vehicle in January 2018, an assassination that shocked the country and left 8 people injured.
But that was enough to ignite the fuse of a barrel of gunpowder between two tribes that were also godfathers to each other.
But in the last 7 years, they have turned Shkodra into an amphitheater of their hostility.
Where many people have been killed in mafia attacks, and family members and relatives or connections of the two tribes have disappeared.
A tragic balance of war, which even the Buna and Kiri rivers, the two rivers that water Shkodra, cannot wash away./ balkanweb
