The Korça Court has remanded in prison Vahide Shuli , a 37-year-old woman from Librazhdi, who is accused of practicing prostitution.
Just 3 days ago, citizen Çelnik Malçellari was found dead in a vehicle . According to the police, he had been in the vehicle with the 37-year-old woman, having sex for payment.
After examination and forensic medical expertise, the 47-year-old man died as a result of hypertension.
The victim worked at a fast-food restaurant in the city of Korça, while the woman arrested by Librazhdi lived with her husband in a rented house in Korça.
The two met in the city's 10th district, on a secondary street, where they were having sexual intercourse while the victim was not feeling well and showed symptoms (vomiting and nosebleeds).
The investigation team opened the victim's phone for examination, where they came across the last conversation he had with the 37-year-old, thus identifying the person who was inside the vehicle.
After the police identified Vahide Shuli, they accompanied her to the local Korça police department to question her about the incident.
The testimony
According to testimony provided by the investigation team, 37-year-old Vahide Shuli told the victim that they should call an ambulance as soon as he started having health problems, but he did not allow it.
Then, according to her, she left home, saying that her husband was waiting for her. These were the words the arrested woman gave to the police.
Meanwhile, according to the investigation team, at the first moment of becoming aware of the incident, the victim was found half-naked and had a 500 lekë banknote (new) in one hand, which confirms what the police have provided in an official communication about the 37-year-old's practice of prostitution.
