Esmerald Balla and Enver Balla

The testimony of Esmerald Balla, who killed her father in Shënvlash of Durrës and then threw his body into a well, is revealed. For the serious incident, he collaborated with 25-year-old Edison Brahajn, to transport the victim's body by vehicle from the scene to the place where it was found by the police.

Before the investigators, the 25-year-old stated that the 75,000 euros turned into an "apple of trouble".

He stated that he went to get money from the safe to pay the entrepreneur who had done the works for the construction of a house for the 30-year-old. According to him, when he went to the room, he saw that the safe was opened with hard objects and that 75 thousand euros were missing. At this moment, the argument with his father started and the boy claims that his father took the pistol and pointed it at him, saying "I will kill you".

Further, the boy stated that at that moment he took the gun to try to get away from him, but the gun fired and the father was killed. He appeared remorseful before the investigators, saying that he did not want to kill her.

EVIDENCE:

We have a single small farm and we both worked there with my father and other family members. Things from the economic side were going very well and we had no problems as everyone did their own tasks. I am building a new house (next to where we live) and the work went very well. We had about 75,000 euros at home from several years of work. On the day of the event, I went to collect the money after the contractor demanded payment because he had closed the work we had agreed on.

I went to the place to get the money and pay it and found that 75 thousand euros were missing. I say to my father: 'where is the money'!? "I don't know", he told me. The safe was damaged with strong tools. It was open. That's where we start to argue. I will kill you, he said and took the pistol and pointed it at me. At one point I approached him and we held hands. The moment I tried to take the pistol from his hand, it fired.

When the gun went off and after I saw that my father was shot my world collapsed because I didn't want that to happen. I panicked. I didn't know what to do. I was afraid to report the crime to the police even though it was an accident. I took the body in the car and we have a well somewhere 1 thousand meters from the house. I threw it there to hide it. I turned off the phone, removed the card and threw the phone into the well. But I didn't feel well. I got anxious and felt bad.

I went to the Durres hospital for a visit. The doctors gave me some medicine. After a couple of days, I reported my missing father to the police. I told the police that the father took the money and disappeared with another woman. I also informed the brothers. You told him that the father ran away from home. This continued for several days until you discovered the incident. I'm very sorry, I didn't want it to go like this./ CNA
