A quantity of explosives was planted in the car of the Road Policeman, Kastriot Selimaj. The car was parked in the yard of the officer's apartment in the "Tepe" neighborhood of Shkodra, when two people placed the tritol.
As can be seen from the images below, two people masked with capes enter his alley.
Then, they climb over the surrounding wall of the apartment and place the explosives.
However, so far the two people have not been identified. Kastriot Selimaj himself, an officer of the traffic police in Shkodër, has stated that he has no problems with anyone, but that he suspects that the tritoli was placed on him because of his work.
The hit of Lazarat in 2014 paved the way for new villages for the cultivation of cannabis in Shkodër, mainly Pulti, Shala and Shoshi.
At the time when crime was appearing frighteningly there, with clashes between criminal gangs, which are generally called criminal families in Shkodër, with explosive explosions and typical mafia assassinations, the responsibility fell on the Police.
The officers of the northern city were in difficulty if they did not report cases of cannabis cultivation, they were suspended and even arrested, while when they did report the consequences were even more severe. Revenge in this case came from the crime, automatically becoming the object of attacks with weapons, explosives or even arson.
Attacks on the police by the "strong" of Shkodra are not only related to cannabis, from time to time they decide to challenge the Police to show that they are invulnerable.

4 JANAR 2020- Eksploziv në banesën e komandantit të Postës së Thethit Prelë Milani
Një sasi eksplozivi shpërtheu në orët e vona të natës së 4 janarit të vitit 2020, në shtëpinë e oficerit Prelë Milani, me detyrë shef stacioni i Policisë në Theth. Sulmi me tritol ndaj Milanit u dyshua se kishte lidhje me detyrën e tij. Sasia e eksplozivit ishte vendosur në pjesën e pasme të oborrit të shtëpisë pranë një magazine, në të cilën ai mbante veglat e punës, rreth 15 metra larg shtëpisë. Oficeri i Policisë Prelë Milani në momentin që ka dalë nga shtëpia dhe i është drejtuar Komisariatit të Policisë për të marrë shërbimin si oficer i gatshëm, ka dëgjuar fillimisht një shpërthim por pa i kushtuar rëndësi.
Afterwards, it was the family members who checked the house and the surrounding yard when they found the warehouse door damaged and a hole with a diameter of about 30 cm in the concrete. After the verifications and declarations, the Shkodra Police came to the conclusion that the placement of the tritol was related to Milan's duties as head of the Post Office in Theth, as well as due to the operations carried out in the Dukagjin area in the fight against the cultivation of narcotics.
The investigations of the "Metamorfoza" file culminated after the forwarding of the letter by the French authorities, where it turned out that in dozens of conversations, Bajri communicated with the missing Ervis Martinaj about the murder of Gjon Boriçi.
This file has been separated by SPAK, as long as Martinaj has been a missing person for nearly two years.
The wiretapping also showed that Martinaj guaranteed that he would eliminate Kleanth Musabelliu in the interest of Pëllumb Gjoka.
The conversations and evidence gathered from the investigation show that Astmer Bilali and other associates tried and provided conditions to kill Dorjan Duli, Ibrahim Lici and Genc Tafili, failed assassination attempts and connections with the police./ VoxNews
