The Court of Appeal has today confirmed the life imprisonment for Përparim Ademi, the murderer of two sisters in Tirana on New Year's Eve 2020.
Ademi killed his ex-girlfriend and her sister, Zhaneta Metani and Kristina Bardhi, on December 31, 2020.
He has requested several times to gain his freedom with the argument that he suffers from mental problems, but this request was rejected. From the legal expertise, it turns out to be without any problems.
The serious event happened on the morning of December 31 last year, in the area of Astir, in the apartment of the Metani and Bardhi sisters.
Adam had a relationship with both of them, but then on Christmas night the sisters made it clear that they no longer wanted to have a relationship with him.
This fact was not accepted by the 59-year-old, who began to suspect that Zhaneta was cheating on him. He returned after a few days to their apartment and killed them with a Kalashnikov.
