Over 4,000 victims of communism in Albania have no graves

ALBANIA

The burial place of more than 4,000 political prisoners executed during the Albanian communist regime of Enver Xohxa, remains unknown up to this day. The secretary of the association for integration of political prisoners of Albania made public this information.

This association accused all previous governments that held power in Albania in the past 18 years, of inaction, negligence and disrespect toward the executed political prisoners.

Recently, the members of the association started taking actions aimed at finding the bodies of some of the prisoners killed in the Enver Hoxha’s era, on their own initiative.
