The Freedom and Reestablishment Party yesterday organized the next protest in front of the Municipality of Tirana and again did not give up the acts of violence, despite the calls of the internationals. Only a group of militants joined the rally in front of the City Hall. As in the previous protest, there were no Molotov cocktails in the direction of the door of the City Hall, which burst into flames, endangering the lives of the policemen. The protest lasted only 2 hours, although the Alliance for the Theater represented by Adriana Kalan, had received permission from the Tirana Police for a protest from 10:00 to 20:00. At the start, protesters threw eggs and apples at the City Hall building, while two protesters were stopped after they were looking for Molotov cocktails thrown in the previous protest. Among the protesters there were also confrontations with the officers and the protesters led by Sali Lusha (former bodyguard of Berisha) also removed the metal fence. After they found it impossible to break through the main door, the councilors and protesters tried to enter the municipality through their door, near the Mosque. At one point, Tedi Blushi, with the Albanian flag in his hands, rode on the protesters and the officers and crossed the metal fence, together with Floida Kërpaçin. Endrit Braimllari was also present at the protest, who resigned as PL vice-president after clashes with Ilir Meta. Also present were representatives of Reestablishment, such as Gazment Bardhi and Flamur Noka. The latter chose not to be active in the clash, based on the fact that he escaped the police investigation for the third protest, unlike Tedi Blushi and Klevis Balliu who were prosecuted in a free state. The protest in front of the municipality for the resignation of Erion Veliaj after the arrests for the „5D“ file, did not escape this time either, the political messages that seem to hide the real cause: the release of Sali Berisha from house arrest for the „Partizani“ affair. This was the fourth protest in front of the Municipality of Tirana, while at the end of it, forensics experts collected evidence at the scene for possible investigations against the protesters and organizers who clashed with the police and threw pyrotechnics. Adriana Kalaja of the Protection of the Theater from the protest announced that the next rally will be next Friday, but at the headquarters of Re-establishment a new decision came out that the protest will be held on Tuesday at 4:30 p.m. when a meeting of the Municipal Council is also expected to take place .
