Interior Minister Ceka openly declares on July 30, that the disarmament process would start from opposition and Democratic Party. The process for gun control is doing based simply on political basis criteria. During these controls, there have been arrested, jailed and detained in Police Stations, roughly 430 members and sympathisers of DP and other parties included in the union for Democracy in the towns mentioned above. Several of them have been kept in jail in violation to rules, as it is the case of Mr. Hysen Kuka, and several others. We think that the Government, by using this practice, is completely blocking disarmament process.
Albanian opposition is currently subject to police surveillance, which is typical for dictatorships.
The employees have refused to act without the General Prosecutor's Office, as the law requests, and we congratulate these employees for their act.
