​Suspicious premises near the Police, Islami: Alarming, there may have been work against the interests of the state

The illegal action of a bar adjacent to the entrance of the police station "Cendra" in Prishtina, which was raided yesterday on the suspicion that illegal medical services were offered, by security experts is being considered as worrying for citizens, security institutions and the Kosovo Intelligence Agency (AKI).

In a statement for KosovaPress, the professor of security sciences, Avni Islami, said that this case should be an alarm for the security institutions of Kosovo, because the illegal action of this bar raises suspicions that there may have been work against the interests of Kosovo. .

Islam emphasized that Kosovo's security institutions must act and be ready to investigate if there are other objects that may carry out suspicious activities against the law and how secure the vital objects of our country are.

"The news that an office has acted next to the Kosovo Police is not pleasant news and a concern for the citizens of Kosovo, but of course it should also be a concern for the security institutions, for the Kosovo Police and for the Kosovo Agency of Intelligence. Because I don't want to give an opinion before the official version about what was inside and what activity took place inside. In any case, suspicious activity has developed within that office and is not in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Kosovo.

Everything that is illegal, raises suspicions and versions that there is a possibility of working against the interests of the state of Kosovo. This case should raise the alarm for Kosovo's security institutions to act and be ready to start an investigation into whether there are other objects and how many vital objects of the Republic of Kosovo are secured", he said.
