Paris, June 1i.-The police
are seeking some motive for the
assassination of General Essad
l'asla, former president of AL
bania, by young Albanian stu
dent, Avenic Rustin, in front of
the Hotel Continental here.
Rustin said he was passing
in front of the hotel when the
former Albanian president
emerged and he was seized with
an irresponsible desire to take
the life of the man he believed
had caused his country much
suffering.
International complications
are feared as tho result of the
assassination i'm view of the fact
that the followers Of EsSad Pasha
are NOW in open revolt against
the Italian occupation of Va
Iona.
