There is still no justice for the 29-year-old English woman who lost her life
Rebecca Gannon

The morning of August 20, 2022, found 29-year-old Englishwoman Rebecca Gannon, along with her boyfriend and 10 other people putting on oxygen equipment to get ready to dive in Saranda Bay.

Accompanied by two diving instructors, everyone finished the dive by coming to the surface of the sea.

Rebecca no. She lost her life.

The police arrived a few minutes later. It revealed that Rebecca had paid for the dive to a tourist agency which offers recreational diving, and was licensed by the Ministry of Tourism.

In the reference of the officers of the judicial police and the prosecution it is stated:

"The agency's translator explained about the diving site and prepared the equipment that the divers would take. While assembling the device, the regulator for the vest inflation did not work and the employee changed the regulator, tried it twice until it worked properly. A few minutes after the group dived, he saw one of the divers calling for help. He immediately went to find her, who was about 30 meters away, but when he arrived he found that she had removed the regulator from her mouth, which is not allowed according to the diving regulations.

The owner of the agency, Saimir Kushova, was arrested for this event, one year ago today, who, during questioning by judicial police officers, declared that "it could happen because of panic, which can convey the feeling of not being supplied with oxygen." .

Charges were brought against him under the suspicion of "Violation of the rules of protection at work".

The measure of prohibition given by the court in Sarandë was an obligation to appear after Kushova placed a property guarantee of 15 million ALL.

As today marks one year since the tragic death of Rebecca Gannon, justice has not yet been served.

The court of Saranda told Top Channel journalist Muhamed Veliu that only the session dated 21.09.2022, with the object of the request "Assessment of arrest and determination of security measures", is registered in the system.

This means that the Saranda prosecutor's office, although it has been a year since this tragedy at sea, has not taken the case to trial.

Based on the right to public information, Top Channel on August 14, 2023, asked the Saranda prosecutor's office at which stage the investigations are and when the file is expected to be sent for trial.

But until the moment of publication of this news, he has not responded.

Like many, many cases, this one of English tourist Rebecca Gannon is "delayed and thus denied justice"./ TCH
