Qemal Lame

After the advent of democracy in Albania, some of the former senior leaders of the communist state administration of the pre-1990s began to appear as longtime opponents of that regime, which they had in fact served with devotion. Some of them made a political career by running the country, some others, "more unlucky", turned into public figures, writing and confessing about their "deeds against the regime". One of them is Qemal Lame, who until 1983, when the investigation was still in the structure of the Ministry of the Interior, was the director of the Directorate of Investigation and then, when the General Investigation acted as an independent body, from 1983- 1992, he was the Chairman of the General Investigation of Albania.

The investigative bodies were tasked with the quick and comprehensive unmasking until the elimination of "enemies of the people" of all categories. The investigation had to discover all the hostile activities that endangered the regime and make a timely verification of the depositions, collecting all the possible evidence to document the guilt of the enemies. The most important thing was that the investigative issue was handled in the prism of the party's policy and its interest. This was also the basic principle of the work of the communist investigation. The investigator had to consider himself as a warrior of the cause of the party and the people who is facing the enemy and in the match he must win, discovering the objective truth, which was in the interest of the party and the people.

Such a fighter for the cause of the party and the people was Qemal Lame, who was the leader of this structure, even in the years of great events, such as the time of Mehmet Shehu's suicide, the shooting of Kadri Hazbi and the discovery of a number of groups hostile that came out of Qemal Lame's investigation.

Today's Qemali tries to fill our minds by writing and appearing in television studios, that he has saved who knows how many people from Enver Hoxha, including Ismail Kadare. It is shameful that the media gives television space to this man and very disgusting to see how he tries to manipulate today's public opinion, pretending to explain how the communist system worked from the inside and exonerating himself at the same time.

This Qemali of yesterday, as we will see in the following document, was so fanatical and loyal to the regime that on June 23, 1983, as director of the Directorate of Investigation, he reported that he had arrested 154 people, carrying out 100% the plan arrests. So he had done a very good job. If he were to wake up from Sharra, this Qemali of yesterday and today, would most likely be the first "anti-communist" communist who would self-criticize him for his behavior and attitudes.

This Qemali was the only high functionary of the communist regime who used a two-story signature (see the facsimile below) and sometimes signed with the surname Lamaj and sometimes with Lame.
