The container settlement in Gracanica is for six days without electricity. Unpaid bills are the reason, said KEDS. The residents, mostly displaced and socially vulnerable people, said that they have no money to pay the outstanding debt.
In this settlement currently live fifteen families which have no electricity since last Thursday.
The power distribution company said that the reason for the exclusion was big debt.
“The debt is too high. The municipality Gracanica was paying electricity for them, but now debts have piled up,” said KEDS spokesman, Guri Shkodra for RTV KIM.
Electricity bills for five internally displaced families were settled by the Commissariat for Refugees. However, the problem is the debt of other tenants that are connected to the same counter for electricity.
