There is a protest in Pristina for the murder of Arlinda Zekaj

Just as warned, today at 16:00 protest started in Pristina against violence and murder of women, after the murder of Arlinda Zekaj.

With banners carrying messages of pain, anger and demand for justice, protests have started in Pristina after the murder of Arlinda Zekaj.

The protest was called by the Collective for Feminist Thought and Action, after the murder that happened on Sunday in Vitomirica, Peja, by the suspect Albert Sylaj, the brother-in-law of the deceased. Arlinda’s family members are also participating in the protest.

“Arlinda, we are sorry that our world is still not safe for women”, “Chronicle of a forewarned murder”, “There is never a reason” and “Am I next?” are some of the messages that the protesters have revealed.

Through these slogans, the protesters are expressing their revolt against violence against women and demanding responsibility for cases where, according to them, the institutions fail to protect them.
