Novruz Cenalia/ Asllan Mernica

The Fier Prosecutor's Office has completed the investigations and sent Azgan Mernica, who took the life of police officer Novruz Cenalia, to trial.

The investigations conducted proved that on May 13, 2024 in the village of Baltëz, at around 1:00 PM, Azgan Mernica shot and killed the state police officer, who was wearing the "Eagle" Special Forces uniform.

The conflict between them is suspected to have started over priority passage on a narrow road located in the village of Baltëz in Fier, an area where the Cenalia family had lived for many years. 

The "Eagle" force officer argued with the young man who was coming from another village, but who was passing through Baltez.

The young man got out of his vehicle, opened the bag where he was carrying the firearm, and while walking towards the victim, who had not exited his vehicle, he shot him, causing his instant death.

From the investigations conducted on criminal proceedings no. 689, of 2024, based on the material referred by the Fier Local Police Directorate, it was proven that, on 13.05.2024, at around 13:30, in the village of Baltëz, Dërmenas Administrative Unit, Fier Municipality, the defendant AM shot and killed the State Police employee NC, who was wearing the "Eagle" Special Forces uniform, which made his status easily recognizable.

The conflict between the victim and the defendant arose because the latter, while driving his vehicle, entered a curve at speed, without checking the road, posing a danger to road users.

The victim drew the defendant's attention to this action, which is why the defendant stopped his vehicle, got out of it with the bag containing the firearm, and while walking towards the victim, who had not exited his vehicle, he took out the pistol-type firearm he was carrying and shot the victim NC in the face, causing his instant death.
