The January 21st meeting was organized by the Socialist Party and there is no single organizer, including Edi Rama.
This is what the Socialist MP, Besnik Bare, declared at trial in the quality of eye witness.
Bare explained that the practice is that the Party leader is the one who signs the request for the protest which is filed to the police.
The MP declared that the protesters were peaceful and that they were provoked by the police, who threw tear gas and used unjustified violence.
“I was attacked by a police officer that I didn’t recognize, and for this I made a report at the Prosecution”, Bare declared. According to him, the MPs appealed the people to calm down and not get involved in confrontations, although he had never seen people attacking the Prime Minister’s institution, the National Guard or the Police.
The MP declared that when he saw people being attacked by the police, a police officer justified it by saying “you should see what they have done to our legs”.
Bare underlined that he knew no one who had used live bullets and that he received this information only from the crowd, and even the fact that someone was killed and wounded.
For more than one hour and a half, the MP told for the media that the ones who have shot against the crowd must be investigated.
“These people who are on trial today are only the executors, but the biggest responsibility comes from the Interior Minister and the Prime Minister, since no one can decide to shoot on his own”, Bare declared.
The other Socialist MP, Paulin Sterkaj, declared that he saw a wounded man falling from a platform, who later was confirmed to be Hekuran Deda.
“The Police was the one to clash with the protesters, not the National Guard. The National Guard had no reason to do what they did”, Sterkaj declared.
In this session testified the former Socialist leader of Kamez, Sul Cara, who described the moment when Aleks Nika was killed.
