Around 150 people gathered today outside the Kosovo government building to protest against the arrest of the opposition MP Donika Kadaj-Bujupi who was arrested for allegedly setting off tear gas in the Kosovo Assembly. Reports say protesters threw teargas, stones and paint at police, while the situation remained tense. Protesters also broke several windows of the government building. The police tried to disperse protesters with teargas to prevent the crowds from approaching the government building.

Kosovo Police spokesperson, Baki Kelani, told media that four police officers were injured during today’s protest and 13 protesters were arrested. He also confirmed that a bag filled with Molotov cocktail was found on the road near Mother Theresa square. Kosovapress reports four citizens were injured from stones and teargas.

Vetevendosje Movement secretary, Dardan Molliqaj, told media that protesters are only responding to government’s violence. He said that protesters will continue to stay in front of the government building and that there will be no normality in Kosovo as long as the government doesn’t annul the recent agreements and release the arrested opposition MP.
