The protest for the murder of Arlinda Zekaj will continue today in Pristina, for the sixth day in a row, with the request for justice and institutional responsibility for her case.
The protest, organized by the Collective for Feminist Thought and Action, has been announced to start at 17:00, in “Zahir Pajaziti” square in Prishtina.
The organizers have called for civic mobilization, stressing that the protests will continue until the fulfillment of their demands for justice for Arlinda and for all the murdered women, as well as security for women facing violence.
Among the main demands of the protesters is that femicide be treated as a national emergency, the dismissal of the Minister of Justice, Donika Gërvalla, and the Minister of Internal Affairs, Xelal Sveçla, as well as the investigation and prosecution of institutional officials who are suspected of neglecting Zekaj’s case.
Likewise, the protestors have demanded responsibility from the officials of the justice institutions, the police and the Center for Social Work, in case it is found that they have not fulfilled their duties in handling the case.
Among the demands is the provision of social housing for survivors of domestic violence, as well as the creation of more effective mechanisms for the protection of women at risk.
Protests and marches in search of justice for Arlinda Zekajn were also held in Peja, Mitrovica, Ferizaj and Istog.
