Yesterday, a mother and her autistic son were hit by pepper spray from police, following tensions at the protest.
She stated after the incident that she was running home after finishing her son’s therapy.
“I was running home. I just want to go home, they threw pepper in our eyes. I want to go home, I wasn’t there, I was in the boy’s therapy, they threw pepper and water in my eyes. Shame on them,” she declared after the incident.
But today, Prime Minister Edi Rama leveled accusations at the protesters, stating that they were the ones who brought her and her sick son to the tense protest.
“A story you’ve all seen. That mother, with the autistic child, whom the crows had taken to parliament, to turn into a police victim to protect the deputies from those violent blind men of Albania. We have just doubled our support for autistic children and their mothers. That mother’s experience is different. She may not be informed, or she may be. But she has never felt our empathy at the end of that gap between our fact and her experience of desperate loneliness.
At the end of the ditch, they put the crows and ravens, their hypocritical hand of solidarity, to take her with them to Parliament, with the same manual that terrorists use as shields while attacking the state police with masks. They put her in front of the cameras, raped her and took her out to the parliament to cry her sorrow. They turned her tears into hail, through the algorithm, then left her and headed for the microphone on the boulevard. Like those black scoundrels that we have seen in the use of this manual who bring meat to the cannon of others and demand solidarity for the poor people by giving speeches on behalf of the victims of the police state”, he said.
But despite these statements, Mrs. File has stuck to the same version, emphasizing that she was returning from her son’s therapy and was returning home.
The entire situation created, the story of the mother and son, touched the hearts of Albanians, who through a GoFoundMe, raised 151 thousand dollars in a few hours.
Rama’s statement was also reposted by the leader of the Democratic Party, Sali Berisha, who accompanied it with a video of the mother with her son, and with his reaction.
“Listen friends, ordinary and poor soul!”, Berisha writes alongside the video./Top Channel
