Two Albanian teenagers have confessed to brutally killing a British man and throwing his body down a well after luring him to the country in a robbery and kidnap plot.
The suspected murderers were close friends of the victim and frequent guests at his home in the weeks leading up to the murder.
Edward Craythorne, from London, was visiting his mother Sophia and sister Eileen in the northern coastal town of Shenhjin, where they had moved in 2004.
Mr Craythorne, 21, a joiner, was lured by his local friends Mario Pjetrushi, 18, and Arlind Vukaj,19, both from the nearby town of Lezha, who persuaded him to join them for a drive in their black Mercedes so that they could smoke marijuana, police said.
But instead the two took Mr Craythorne to the remote village of Mal, where, according to police, they massacred him with knives and stole his gold chain and the keys to his familys home. They then threw his lifeless body in an abandoned well, where it was discovered weeks later.
The crime took place on February 2, but Mr Craythornes decomposed remains were only found last week by two shepherds who noticed a strong stench coming out of the well.
Mr Phetrushi and Mr Vukaj allegedly planned to rob the apartment of the Craythornes and torture the two women into giving them access to their bank accounts. Instead they were arrested by police and have since confessed to the crime.
A police spokesman said that Mr Craythorne and his family were perceived as wealthy in the impoverished area and that greed and envy were the assumed motives for the murder.
The British embassy in Tirana was promptly notified of the incident and has already provided full legal and other support to the Craythorne family.
Mr Cratythorne is said to have frequently visited his mother and his sister in Albania.
His sister Eileen originally moved to the Adriatic port Shenhjin with her mother Sofia to marry a local man, according to reports. The family has not spoken to the press since the murder took place, but a police spokesman reported they were shaken and in a state of shock, especially since the suspected murderers were friends of their son and brother.
Mr Craythorne will be buried at a cemetery in the town of Lezha today. His other two sisters have travelled from London to attend the funeral.
The suspected murderers are expected to stand trial for premeditated murder when once the police complete the investigation and hand over the case to prosecutors.
It doesn't seem to matter to the British who continue thinking Albanians are the most precious and innocent creatures of the Balkans and now the Brits are even moving to Albania.
Friends...guests? What a couple of devils.
Big surprise! The dog vomit Albanians are the Somalis of the Balkans. The British deserve them. Maybe when the Pakis take over England, they can all move to Kosovo.
I believe the suppression of Serbia and the creation of an independent "Kosovo" is more about confecting the new world order and globalism than anything else. You can't have those nationalist, sovereign states like Serbia standing up to the rest of the West and declaring their autonomy from them, you know. And we must show Islam that we understand them, and desire to live harmoniously with them. Notice that the Bush Administration simply picked up the reigns that Clinton left for him regarding Serbia and Kosovo. Milosovic and his Serbia had to be conquered because Serbia was setting a dangerous example of how nations can stand up against the New World Order.
Only fools would have anything to do with the Albanians!
Do you hear that, Jorge Bush?
Reality and history will ultimately bite the proponents of The New World Order on their dimpled patrician asses. In keeping with their continued desire to ignore history's direset lessons, can we now finally begin to call the "neo-cons" the "pseudo-cons", which is, in reality , what they are?
From the article: “greed and envy” on the part of the Albanians and for that matter the Albanians who live in Kosovo.
The basic motivation underlying mohamedanism and that other well known ideology: Marxist-Leninism.
I'm beginning to think that just "cons" is good enough.
Take me off your ping list, troll
Fine by me, enemy, but if you ping me to your anti-Serb articles again then it’s back on again. So as long as you avoid posting to/bothering me from now on I won’t aggravate you either.
I won’t be wasting much more time on any Balkan threads anymore.
Too much negative energy, it’s depressing.
See ya.
Well, that's fine Canuck Conservative, but remember, you're the individual who has most recently instigated most of the "negative energy" that you are referring to.
Yeah, lies like that I won’t miss.
I’m outta here.
Another infidel bites the dust
Well, the fact of the matter is CC, is that much of the "stuff" around here, lately, begins right at your doorstep.
So, you might want to think about that while your on vacation.
Aw c’mon, give us some more Bravo Sierra info from some Soros-funded webshiite.
