Massive grave body remains, unidentified

After many investigations that also involved a well known international anthropologist, the Prosecution of Tirana suspended the case and passed it to the Albanian police. During the investigations in the prosecution, although the prosecutors cooperated with forensics and contacted many families whose relatives had been executed in the communist regime, it was impossible to identify even one of the victims. Unofficial sources say for Top-Channel that they expected to perform an ADN test of the remains, to compare it with the ADN of the pretenders, but no one paid the expenses that were not small. In these conditions, after waiting for several months, the prosecutors delegated the case to the police.

On February 2010, the discovery of 13 skeletons in a massive grave near Dajt, Linze, brought back memories of the people who were executed during the communist regime, mostly by the associations of the Politically Persecuted people, who accused the government of doing nothing for finding the executed people. The government also promised to help resolving this case, and Democratic Party MPs even visited the place where the remains were found and declared that our judicial system should not have judges or prosecutors who had given such decisions.
