Even one year after the Himara tragedy, drama ensues at the family of
Aurora Molla, the girl from the Verdova village who lost her life in the
terrible accident.
Her mother confirms that she has received a ridiculous compensation from the travel company.
“One year went away and my heart knows how days go by. We have received no compensation from the company. They haven’t offered us even 30 million ALL, a ridiculous compensation”, says Aurora Molla’s mother.
Students and relatives of the victims gathered today at the Elbasan University to commemorate the victims.
A horrible bus accident took place in Himara, on 21 May 2012. A bus carrying students from Elbasan fell off a cliff and 13 people died, 22 others were severely injured. The forensic report says that the accident was caused by excessive speed.
