The well-known investigative journalist, Mrs. Anila Hoxha (Top Channel) and her colleague Endrit Aga of the A2CNN TV team were physically attacked on November 06, 2021 at around 17:00 by a police officer while reporting a case of murder on the outskirts of Tirana, near Mount Dajti.
A police officer tried to push them on the edge of the abyss, an act that could also put their lives in danger given the difficult terrain. The incident was immediately reported to the authorities. Later that day, the Internal Affairs and Complaints Service of the Ministry of Interior confirmed that they have launched inspections in connection with the violence exercised by a police officer against the Top Channel journalist (Anila Hoxha) and the Endri Aga of TV crew of A2CNN while reporting on a murder case in the Qafë Molla area.
