Some 3,000 protesters gathered in Pristina Tuesday to protest rampant crime in the southern province. "The murder of the police officer was an attack by the organized crime groups," Kosovo Prime Minister Agim Ceku said at the rally, in reference to last Thursday's murder of a Kosovo Police Service (KPS) officer Triumf Riza. Kosovo: Thousands protest crime The United Nation's Kosovo mission (UNMIK) gave its support to the protest, calling the murder of Riza "a heinous crime and a terrible tragedy." "The outpouring of support for his family is a sign that the people of Kosovo do not accept crime and violence. His death has united Kosovo's people against crime like no other event that I have witnessed here," UN administrator in Kosovo Joakim Ruecker said. Though eight people have been arrested in the case and one has admitted to killing Riza, according to local media, the main suspect remains local crime boss Enver Sekiraqa, though no warrants have been issued for his arrest. Kosovo has turned into a hotbed for organized crime, including widespread drug smuggling and human trafficking activity.
