The Basic Court in Prizren has set the measure of detention for a duration of one month, due to the well-founded suspicion that the defendant Sh.O. has committed the criminal offense of “Aggravated Murder” in complicity, as well as against the suspect A.O. (mother) due to the well-founded suspicion that she has committed the criminal offense of “Aggravated Murder”.

The decision came after the Prosecution requested Detention of Shqipron Osmanaj, a minor, and Ajshe Osmanaj, in the case of the stabbing of Albian Osmanaj, reports Gazeta e Prizren.

In the announcement it is stated that the court in the case of assigning detention to the defendants has assessed that there are legal reasons for assigning this measure, and from the evidence collected up to this stage, the suspicion is based that:

The defendant Sh. O. and the minor A:O. on 14.06.2026, in the village of Kobaj, Municipality of Prizren, in complicity and intentionally deprive the victim A.O. and in that case they put the life of the injured I.O. at risk, pushed by the suspect A.O. mother of the defendants, in such a way that after an earlier conflict arising from disagreements, they first engage in a verbal and then a physical conflict with the victims A.O. and I.O., who use sharp tools – knives, attack and hit them. As a result of stab wounds to the chest, the victim A.O. dies, while the injured I.O. suffers serious bodily injuries, life-threatening, for which he was sent for medical treatment to the Regional Hospital of Prizren.

“Taking into account the material evidence, which justifies the suspicion that the defendants have committed the criminal offenses for which they are suspected, the court assessed that the conditions for assigning detention have been met, because the investigations are in the initial phase, and the defendants in order to avoid criminal responsibility can hide or escape, or influence witnesses and evidence, making it impossible for the regular development of the criminal procedure, in this case the appointment of detention is necessary and reasonable”, the announcement states.
