The Deputy Prime Minister of Albania, Niko Peleshi, met this Saturday at his office with the Zharrza residents.

The residents of this village had their homes damaged by the oil research method used by a foreign company. They walked on foot to Tirana, in sign of protest.

This Saturday they arrived at the Ministry of Energy and Industry, asking for their homes to be compensated.

Last night they slept inside tents, outside Tirana. The residents say that not only their homes, but their children too were poisoned by uncontrolled natural resources.
