Was Qemal Stafa betrayed? Granddaughter's confession: Only my uncle was killed, the others all saved! The father lived with the worry that...

This November 29, on the 80th anniversary of the liberation, we find Narcis Stafa in the Martyrs' Cemetery, honoring her uncle, Qemal Stafa, one of the first martyrs of the Anti-Fascist war.

Even as a tribute to this date, the brother of the People's Hero decided to crown his love with his wife on November 29, and his daughter discovers this for the first time.

"Even my father's marriage with my mother marks the date of November 29 as a sign of the liberation of the country from the fascist occupation. With this, I want to show how sacred the date of liberation was for the Stafa family, even though the uncle was killed and could not celebrate this date", she said.

The granddaughter of Qemal Stafa says that she grew up with the figure of an idealist, with great intellectual skills, but also with a great artistic world.

"He was a revolutionary who took death as it came, he did not stop creating anti-fascist cells from north to south, he deserves the credit of this war, along with all the other heroes. Because after Qemali, his friends, Vojo Kushi, Vasil Shanto, Margarita Tutulani and many other heroes were also killed", she said.

For Top Channel, Narcis Stafa recalls the evidence for the murder of Qemal Stafa on May 5, 1942, when the base where he stayed illegally was discovered under mysterious circumstances.

"I remember from my father, from my uncle's friends and eyewitnesses that all the friends who were at the base escaped. A villager of that area asked them to change their clothes to save their lives, but he refused. My father never broached the subject that his brother was the only one killed, but with a concern that his comrades should not leave him in the mud, but fight by his side.

The day Qemali was killed, a group of carabinieri stopped him and took him to the Tirana morgue. They say this is your brother? He saw a slaughtered body, riddled with bullets. From that situation, fascism exiled him out of fear that he would join Qemal's friends ," she says.

However, the figure of Qemal Stafa has been constantly anathema after the 90s, and has even been considered a fascist quite a few times. For Ms. Stafa, there has been an attempt to smear the contribution in one of the most important wars in the country's history.

"This is a paradox for our family. Even the student began to connect with Italian anti-fascist student groups and how can he be a collaborator with fascism. It was not the fault of the Albanian anti-fascist youth that they were placed on the right side of history. My uncle was not only an exponent of the anti-fascist resistance, but he also wanted the unification of the Albanian lands, he wanted the unification of Albania with Kosovo. With all these progressive ideas, how can I wear these epithets that are painful for our family" , she said in an interview for journalist Sara Hila./ TCH
