In these images from March 29, published earlier by the "Uniko" show, you can see how the conflict that ended in the murder started.

Armand Gosa blocks Altin Rexha's path and starts insulting him. Altin Rexha holds the boy's hand along with the bag of products he bought at the market. Armand Gosa turns and heads towards Rexha. The latter takes out the pistol from his belt and loads it. The 40-year-old Gosa approaches him and starts threatening him.

According to the witnesses, Rexha asks him for an explanation as to why he comes forward with the child and asked him to take the boy home and then come back to clarify. Armand Gosa approaches him menacingly. A local citizen approaches to separate them, but Gosa does not back down.

Another bystander approaches to separate the parties. Both distance themselves somewhat. However, Armand Gosa does not stop and approaches Altin Rexha again who was leaving with his young son. From this moment, the parties are lost from the field of view of this security camera. A few seconds later, Armand Gosa stabs Altin Rexha in the back with 6 knives. The knife also caught Rexha's young son, injuring him in the arm.

According to the witnesses, Altin Rexha let go of the boy and retaliated by shooting Armand Gosa with 4 pistol bullets. Although wounded at that moment, Armand Gosa approached him and stabbed Altin Rexha 4 more times in the chest. Both died from bleeding.

The quarrel between the parties started in the summer of 2022 in a bar in Kavaja. Armand Gosa had offended Altin Rexha by saying that "Maloks have no business in Kavaja". From that moment, Rexha had obtained a weapon without a permit and kept it for self-defense. /tvklan.al
