Officer Arjan Tase has been suspended from the ranks of the State Police by the General Director Gladis Nano, after he killed a 7-year-old girl with a speedboat today on the beach of Potami in Himare.
He currently held the position of head of the Community Policing Section in the Elbasan Police, while earlier he was also the head of the police station in the Himara Police.
But, Arjan Tase has been warned earlier to be dismissed from office. He was among the policemen for whom suspension was requested from the General Director of the State Police, Ardi Veliu. The request was related to the amount of drugs that was detected in October 2020, where about 12 thousand cannabis roots were seized.
Specifically, the suspension of Artur Veshaj, deputy/commissioner, in charge of crimes at the Himara police station, Ilir Kadëna, deputy/commissioner specialist for crimes at the Himara police station, Isa Jaçaj, crime specialist at the Himara police station, David Fakaj patrol officer in Himara and Arjan Tase, head of the police station of Himara, the author of today's event.
An investigation by the Police Oversight Agency has been launched for the police officer with the rank of Commissioner and Head of the Community Policing Section at the Elbasan Police Station.
