The Court of First Instance in Shkodra has ordered " prison arrest " for citizen Prel Gjoni, owner of the " Xhedis " market.
Gjoni came out to familiarize himself with the security measures after a few days ago, together with two other people, he attacked journalist Ervin Dushi .
Gjoni denied in court that he hit journalist Dushi, sticking to his version that he only pushed him.
Despite the claims of the supermarket owner, the Shkodra prosecution requested " prison arrest ", a measure that was accepted by the first instance court, which remanded Prel Gjoni in custody .
It all started after a video by journalist Ervin Dushi on TikTok a few days ago, who said that that evening he would denounce the expired food of a supermarket chain.
At dinner, according to journalist Dushi, he received a call from the owner of the "Xhedis" market, Prel Gjoni , and that the latter had hit him along with two others, causing damage to his face and head.
After this event, the police detained Prel Gjoni and arrested him, while the court today sentenced him to " prison arrest" .
After the incident, before he was arrested, but also in court, Gjoni stated that journalist Dushi had blackmailed him to impose a fine on him, but this has not been proven and has been denied by the journalist in question, who was beaten by 3 people, among whom he was also hit by Prel Gjoni , who was arrested by the Shkodra police for the criminal offense of " assault due to duty ". The prosecution is now continuing the investigations to fully clarify this case.
