The uncle of the wife of Alex Mark , the 40-year-old who held the children hostage and fired shots, has stated that he used violence against his wife.
Nikoll Gjonaj says that Alex Marku used constant violence against his wife, both psychologically and physically. According to him, in some cases he even pointed the gun at his head.
The woman's uncle says that he reported Alex Marku, while he told the police that he used drugs regularly.
"Aleks Marku, unfortunately for him and mine and my sister, has my sister's daughter. My sister's daughter has become a rag. Ever since he married her, he treated her in the most extreme way. 11 years of this has been reported to the police more than 20-30 times.
I am also the one who denounced him with my sister. It is that of the state police who released him, put him in and take him out. He beat him, he took the rifle to the head, he was a captive before him. It is the police, the state that they favor.
He lived with drugs, he lived in the most extreme way. I have told the police why you stop because he is on drugs. I reported him with 129 3-4 years ago, I told them he has a gun in the car. All his life he has had guns, drugs, and the police have protected him. If he wanted, the police had stopped him. Did he abuse her? Not violence, but psychological, beating, he used to kill the children in front of their eyes. It takes 1 week to talk to him about what he has done," he says .
