Arrested during student protests against Rama, Appeal changes security measure

Student Klevin Metaj, arrested in the early days of the student protest in Tirana against Prime Minister Edi Rama, has been released from house arrest.

 The Court of Appeal has changed the security measure against him, setting the "obligation to appear" once a month before the relevant body. Previously, the Court of First Instance had imposed the measure of "house arrest" on the student. The news was announced by his lawyer, Gentian Sejrani, who, together with his colleague Taulant Asllanaj, represented Metaj in the appeals court process.

Through a reaction, Sejrani also announced that a criminal complaint has been filed against State Police officers, regarding what he describes as degrading and inhumane treatment of the student.

"Today, the Court of Appeals changed the decision, imposing on Klevin Metaj the security measure 'obligation to report once a month to the relevant body'", the lawyer announced. Meanwhile, the case against the police officers will continue through the criminal complaint registered regarding the allegations regarding the treatment of the student.
