The loss of another culture monument in Korce has brought the reaction
of the Municipality, saying that Mayor Niko Peleshi has expressed the
readiness of the Municipality to reconstruct this museum house and
return it to the city, with the Municipality’s funds.
The Minister of Culture, Youth and Sports has received the request for allowing the Municipality to reconstruct the house where the flag of Independent Korca was raised, so that they can have it ready on November 28th as a historical and cultural part of the city.
The Municipality has also filed a report at the Korce Prosecution, which is now investigating to find the persons that brought the building down.
In this house, Themistokli Germenji declared Korca independent on 16 December 1916, but it was destroyed yesterday with heavy vehicles. The loss of such a value was strangely followed by the silence of the owners, some of them are also constructors.
RBA: The demolition of the house, a terrorist act
The Red and Black Alliance addressed a request to the Secret Services and the Prosecution, saying that the demolition of the Themistokli Germenji house is a terrorist act, reminding that all other renaissance houses have been brought down through the same technique.
“This is a serial terrorism against the historical monuments. The Secret Service must guarantee national Security. The demolition was made in cooperation with incriminated government representatives”, the request states.
