Tetovo University Anniversary, Incident
Tetovo University Anniversary, Incident
Wednesday evening the observance of the 12th anniversary of Tetovo University ended up with injured people who were taken to hospital. A group of about ten people claim they were beaten up by the security of DPA vice-president Menduh Thaci, which they interpret as a punishment for their exclamations ‘Fascist, Nationalist’ during the speech of Parliament Speaker Ljubisa Georgievski.
His address in Albanian proved to be insufficient to gain the sympathies of all those who were present. Thaci claims the incident was politically motivated by people close to Ahmeti.
The security removed the group of dissatisfied. One person from the same group claims that immediately afterwards he was beaten up by Thaci’s security of about twenty to thirty people: “We know how much pain Georgievski caused to the Albanians. He was against this university and he cannot come to such a ceremony and express such words. He does not exist for us.” After the incident Thaci declared he had no information that anybody had been beaten up by the security. Georgievski did not see this as an incident. Tetovo University was legalised in January 2004.
