Incident with Rama's bodyguards in Vuno/ Arjan Konomi is escorted to the

An incident occurred this Thursday in the village of Vuno. Journalist and publicist Arjan Konomi clashed with bodyguards and police forces accompanying Prime Minister Edi Rama. 

Konomi is a resident of Vunoi and often complains on social media about the behavior of the state police who fine citizens for parking their vehicles. 

This Thursday, Prime Minister Edi Rama stopped for a coffee in this village, and Konomi said that his escort had stayed in the area where citizens are prohibited from entering. 

According to a statement he made on social media, Rama called him to clarify, but was faced with aggressive behavior from his wife Linda Rama.

Konomi then says he was escorted to the Himara police station where he was held for several hours. 

The leader of the "Albania Becomes" party, Adriatik Lapaj, has also reacted to this incident, stating that he strongly condemns "the illegal behavior of the Prime Minister's companions, but also of Mr. Rama himself, who allows himself rights above the law, even the arbitrary escorting of a citizen regardless of who he is!" ©LAPSI.al

Veton Surroi: The crisis in Albania in seven points

One solution would be to create the legal and political conditions for free and fair elections next year. For the elections to produce a way out of the crisis, a special package of electoral guarantees should be prepared that, among other things, would limit in advance the influence of illicit money, the misuse of state resources, and inequality in access to the media.
