The Association of Journalists of Kosovo (AJK) is alarmed by the serious accusations made against Berat Buzhala in the case of the murder of Sadri Sadriu. The son of the victim, Ilir Sadriu, recently made a public accusation on Facebook, alleging that Buzhala, a journalist and founder of Nacionale, was involved in his father’s murder.
Sadriu wrote that “the fact that the case was not denounced before the courts of the Republic of Kosovo but before those of Serbia, and taking into account the close ties of Berat Buzhala with other criminal actors in Serbia, only strengthens the suspicion of his direct involvement in the murder of our father.”
The Association of Journalists of Kosovo strongly condemns these accusations, as they pose a significant threat to the safety of Buzhala and his colleagues. Following this accusation, the safety of Buzhala and other journalists at Nacionale is now at risk.
AJK urges the Kosovo Police to take immediate action and implement additional security measures to ensure the safety and protection of Buzhala and his team.
