Frightening scenes are being broadcast in the media from the Student Revolt across Albania. The footage shows violent and brutal arrests by police of 14- and 15-year-old pupils. The State Police are using violence outside every regulation and legal standard for the treatment of minors.
According to reports from Syri TV journalists Fatjon Gjinaj and Albi Rakip on the ground in Tirana, armed people in civilian clothes are seen beating and arresting minors with unprecedented brutality.
The situation regarding police violence is most serious in Tirana, Durrës and Elbasan.
The students are not backing down; across the country they are chanting, “Edi Rama, go away, resign”.
