Police have arrested a 23-year-old man wanted in connection with an alleged serious assault in Rrëshen. The Albanian State Police said the case was investigated by the Serious Crimes Sector at DVP Lezhë, working with the Special Force “Shqiponja”, the Operational Support Sector, and Mirditë police services. The operation was coded “Brothers”. The 23-year-old was taken into custody after a court in Lezhë ordered an “arrest in prison” security measure for “intentional serious injury,” committed in collaboration with another person. Police accuse the man of assaulting a 38-year-old with hard objects on 27.10.2026 in Rrëshen, together with his brother, a 31-year-old who is still wanted. The case file was referred to the Prosecutor’s Office at the Court of First Instance of the General Jurisdiction in Lezhë for further action.
