    [03] ARREST ORDER ISSUED AGAINST MYRTEZA CAUSHI

    TIRANE, OCT. 5 (ATA)-By M. Hodo, The Tirane court issued the arrest order against Myrteza Caushi on Saturday. Caushi is charged with premeditated killing, illegal possession of weapons, creation of armed gangs and actions committed by the armed gangs.

    The charges were rejected by the defendant and his defence attorney, Gazmend Zeneli, who asked that the ruling of the prosecutor's office be changed as the legal time frame of issuing it has expired. But this request was not considered by the court's jury.

    Myrteza Caushi, 26, known as Zani, who had been sentenced in Greece to 101 years imprisonment, created in March of this year his gang in the "Cole" quarter of the Vlore city.

    For more than five months he has committed various crimes in the wave of protests, at the head of the gang.

    The Albanian press had put forth many hypotheses regarding his being or not in Albania. Caushi was recently arrested by police in the Vlore city. jz/lm/z
