Geri was arrested on Monday on behalf of Kosovo/ Artan Hoxha is afraid for his

The son of renowned Albanian journalist Artan Hoxha was arrested on Monday, January 19, in Tirana, on suspicion of involvement in organized crime, specifically human trafficking. Geri Hoxha and another person were wanted by an international arrest warrant, at the request of UNMIK.

Regarding the case, Artan Hoxha spoke exclusively to "Klan Kosova", saying that he is still not informed about the specific accusations against his son. Concerned, he said that at the time the alleged crimes were committed, his son was only 13 years old.

"This has been happening for several days, but I still haven't seen any official documents or decisions. It's strange how a child can be accused of participating in a structured criminal group. I'm afraid I'm being treated unfairly,"  Hoxha said.

According to the Albanian journalist, authorities in Kosovo have made an extradition request, but so far no official files or documentation have been handed over to him. "I have been told that the documents will be forwarded to the Albanian authorities ," he added.

Journalist Artan Hoxha stated that at the time of the arrest, his son was on his way to work, because he works as a dental laboratory technician.

" He only had 10 thousand lek in his pocket. An ambulance driver was also arrested with him. How can this be linked to organized crime?"  the journalist asked.

During a conversation with Albanian journalists in Kosovo, Artan Hoxha raised doubts about his son's treatment in detention facilities, emphasizing that so far he has not been able to meet Geri, also expressing fear for his safety.
