Gani Thaci, brother of President Hashim Thaci, has been detained on assault charges against two directors of insurance companies.

The attack is reported to have come as a result of Thaci’s post within the insurance sector being phased out.

President of Kosovo Hashim Thaci in a Facebook post said he was informed of his brother’s involvement in a fight and added that he would never justify any illegal activity and that responsibility is individual.

He called on law enforcement institutions to treat the case in accordance with the law.

“Only this way can we build a legal state where everyone will be equal before the law and justice,” Thaci said.
