The use of force in arrests and police interventions on the capital’s streets has triggered a harsh reaction from Gazment Bardhi, head of the Democratic Party (PD) parliamentary group.
Following published footage showing police officers using violence and escorting young people through the streets, Bardhi leveled strong accusations against police leadership and those he says ordered the intervention.
In a statement, he condemned the police’s actions in strong terms, questioning how young people are being treated during these operations.
“Who are you beating like animals, you spineless men, you trash?! You beat your own children, leave them wounded in the streets, you wretches?!” Bardhi wrote in his reaction.
