Azem Hajdari
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Azem Hajdari (March 11, 1963 - September 12, 1998), married with two children, was an Albanian politician. Hajdari was a close aid of Sali Berisha, the Prime Minister of Albania. After his assassination, for which Berisha blamed the Socialist Party of Albania and its leaders, there were several demonstrations, some of them violent. Others blamed Berisha himself. No one was convicted of Hajdari's murder, although many people were eventually fingered as having participated in his assassination. Many of these suspects were in turn assassinated or killed under different circumstances.
