New details from the murder of Edoardo Sarchi in Tepelena/ The Italian was

The murder of Italian businessman Edoardo Sarchi in the village of Salari in Tepelena continues to remain shrouded in mystery, while authorities have not yet released any details from the autopsy results on what caused the wound in his leg that took his life. However, Report TV journalist Keti Banushi has managed to learn through sources that according to the autopsy results, the Italian was shot with a bullet in his right leg, a wound caused by a firearm.

Only two pairs were found at the scene, but it turns out that the wound in the Italian's leg was not caused by shooting with pairs. The weapon with which the Italian was shot was not found at the scene. 

The Italian Sarchi was said goodbye the day before at a funeral ceremony in Tufina. He had been living in our country for 20 years and was married to an Albanian woman from Fushë-Kruja, with whom he had two children.

The funeral was private and many of the Italian's relatives were unable to attend, as his cousin Riccardo Barbieri revealed in an interview with La Repubblica. In fact, the Italian Sarchi's sister was unable to attend the funeral.

The dynamics of Sarchi's murder are still unclear and from what distance he was shot. Meanwhile, the 4 people who were escorted were released on September 27, the same day that Sarchi was found dead on the road in the village of Salari, Tepelena. The four, Eqrem Braçi with his two sons, Gazmend and Daniel, and the shepherd have given contradictory testimonies.

Eqerem Braçi and his sons claim that they were attacked with a gun by a mysterious person, in Dilan between Nivica and Salaria, where the crime scene is. The gun attack, according to them, was unexpected. The escorts said that they initially heard three shots that were very close, which caused the first Land Rover vehicle, on board of which was the Italian businessman and one of the escorts, to stop. The shepherd also stated that he heard 3 gunshots. However, no shell casings were found at the scene.

It is suspected that Sarchi had gone hunting at midnight on September 27, when he was found dead between the villages of Salari and Nivicë, on one of the roads that run through Tepelena. 

The partnership between Italian businessman Edoardo Sarchi, who was murdered on September 27 in Tepelena, and the Braçi family has also been revealed. Sarchi's wife, Majlinda Taga, owns 50% of the shares in the Salaria Gaz business, while Gazmend Braçi, Eqerem Braçi's son, owns 50%. The two, along with their other son, Daniel, had invited the Italian to their home in Salari, Tepelena, and are suspected of having gone hunting at midnight on September 27, when the Italian was found dead in the street.

Majlinda Taga also turns out to be a financier at the "Tegola Edilcentro" factory, which has been managed by Sarchi since 2023. It is learned that Taga bought 5% of the shares from Braç in 2024, a year ago, for a value of 500 euros.
