Aleksandër Ndoka, the brother of the former socialist MP, Arben Ndoka, was killed on December 9, 2017. He was found executed with a firearm in his car.
The father of four was a member of the Lezha Municipal Council since 2015 and owned a private business. The 48-year-old was executed near his home in the "Mother Teresa" neighborhood.
Investigators said at the time that the perpetrators of this assassination had had accurate information on the movements carried out by their target or had followed it. The road near the apartment was seen as the most convenient place, because it is narrow and the victim was not able to leave.
According to forensic experts, Aleksandër Ndoka was turning the car to enter the apartment and was shot while walking backwards. 14 bullets were fired at him and 9 of them hit him in the body, causing his immediate death.
Referring to the self-declaration form, Ndoka was not a person with a criminal record.
It was suspected at the time that the two may have been the assassins. There were two main clues that the police investigated at the time, that of personal conflicts or other members of the Ndoka family and that of murder due to duty.
Since 2013, the 48-year-old had held positions in the local administration in Lezha, lawyer in the Mortgage and the regional council and since 2015 a member of the municipal council. While months before the assassination he was also appointed chief inspector of the National Inspectorate of Territorial Defense for the North.
