Libofsha massacre / The prosecutor who gave the last death sentence confesses:

The serious event in Fier, the murder of 8-year-old Mateo Vasiu, brought to attention the so-called 'Libofsha Massacre'. On May 29, 1992, in the village of Libofsha in Fier, brothers Josif and Dritëbardh Çuko executed five family members, including a 7-month-old baby.

Today, after 29 years, the prosecutor who found the two brothers guilty and sentenced them to hanging on a rope, Kiço Nano shows episodes from the moment he gave the sentence to the two brothers.

The former prosecutor says that it was not at all easy to give the decision, but that when he remembered the tragedy that happened in the Pupa family, especially the macabre murder of the baby, he thought that the two perpetrators deserved more than the execution by hanging on a rope.

"Until July '92, I was the prosecutor of the district of Fier and in April a very serious, macabre event happened in Fier, which has remained in my mind, three generations were killed and disappeared. Rare event in Europe and in the world to wipe out three generations in one murder. The son leaves with the bride, the little child, Magdalena 7 months old and the boy's parents, three generations. It stuck in my mind when I found the strength, when I remembered and went through the scene of the murder of the 7-month-old baby she gave me to say no capital, but if there was super capital they deserved the execution. He killed it with a lever, I had even weighed the lever, it was a 13-kilogram barometer lever. He shot her in the head, the child cried. "After the boy and the bride were hit first, they were hit with a lever, hearing the noise, the child cried, because it was 01:00 at night, they also shot the child with a lever", said Nano.

Nano points out that the two killers of the five members, as they told the whole story, did not express remorse. "Yes, yes the whole event. "Nothing at all, as if nothing had happened, they had not repented."

Regarding the event of the first two days, where Klodian Çalamani kidnapped, killed and buried the 8-year-old in the yard of his apartment, Nano describes it as a macabre event that deserves the maximum punishment.

But how possible is the reinstatement of the death penalty? "The biggest fight should have been made at the time it was removed, not removed, now that it has been removed it is difficult to re-establish," said Nano.
