25 domestic violence cases were reported in the past 48 hours in
Albania, after Judge Fildes Hafizi was shot dead by her ex-husband.

In most of the cases, victims have filed a request for protection order. Husbands have been reported for violence not only against their wives, but also against other members of their wives’ families.

A 29-year-old in Saranda has even violated the court order to stay away from his mother, and he has attacked her once again. However, more endangered women have asked institutions for help, after the case of Judge Hafizi.

Top Channel’s “You Report” has received a report from Merita Doci, from Fushe Kruja, who said she escaped death from her ex-husband, but feels endangered now that he has been released for the past two months.

After the news of the Judge in Tirana, she asks the government for help, and says she feels abandoned by the court and prosecution.

The State Police reacted for this case, saying that they have searched in the area where they think her husband may be hiding, and they ask citizens for information.
