Bulqizë homicide investigation
Overview
Police in Bulqizë, Albania, arrested a 57-year-old woman and her 33-year-old son following the death of a man in the village of Godvi. While family members initially reported that the victim had died in a bear attack, forensic examinations revealed he was killed with a firearm and sharp objects.
Investigators from the Dibër Police Department seized a Model 54 pistol, ammunition, and a shell casing. The suspects are accused of acting in cooperation to commit the killing. The case was referred to the Dibër Prosecutor's Office for charges including murder due to family relationships and illegal possession of weapons.
During a court session at the Dibra Court, the suspects denied involvement in the death. Forensic evidence conducted in Tirana identified a gunshot wound to the chest and injuries to the head. Reports indicate that at the time of the incident, the family declined to allow hospital staff to prepare the body, stating they would handle the process themselves according to their traditions.
