Former Albanian President Bujar Nishani has died at the age of 56 after being transferred to Germany for treatment due to post-mortem complications.
According to sources in the newspaper Tema, the doctors suggested euthanasia as a final solution, after which he was disconnected from the devices. Nishani's family traveled to Germany to agree to this.
After being infected with Covid-19, he was hospitalized at the Infectious Diseases Clinic in Tirana, but after his condition worsened, he was transferred to Germany on April 23 for more specialized treatment.
Nishani was born on September 29, 1966, and was President of Albania from July 24, 2012 to July 24, 2017.
In the Democrat governments, led by Sali Berisha, he was the Minister of Justice as well as the Minister of the Interior.
At the end of his presidential term, he withdrew from the political scene, to return to the wing led by Berisha at the end of last year.
