Protest in front of Tirana City Hall, three people are arrested

Three protesters have been arrested after the protest held yesterday in front of the Tirana municipality.

They are accused of the criminal offenses of "resisting police officers" and "destruction of property by fire".

In the protest called by the opposition and the Alliance for the Protection of the Theatre, the citizens demanded the resignation of the mayor Erion Veliaj, after the corruption scandal with the 5D company and the arrest of the directors and former directors of the municipality.

Meanwhile, this protest was accompanied by tensions from its start, with dozens of Molotov cocktails thrown at the entrance of the town hall building.
