Kosovo Women’s Network (KWN) has expressed outrage at the recent murder of a mother and daughter by the husband/father in the village of Brekoc, Gjakova/Djakovica municipality. In a statement, women NGOs said they were deeply concerned at the lack of interest on the part of relevant institutions regarding the lives of women and girls in Kosovo and stated that if proper measures had been taken against the perpetrator, “we would not be writing this statement today and a woman and a child would still be living”. Prior to the murder, the victim had reported to the police that she received death threats from her estranged husband, but the police said they were unable to locate the suspect. Chief prosecutor for Gjakova/Djakovica told Kallxo.com that the suspect was known to authorities and that he had been previously indicted on domestic violence charges.
