The video reportedly shows the director confronting students in the school premises, where he is seen physically mistreating them and discarding their food on the ground. While the exact circumstances surrounding the incident remain unclear, authorities have emphasized that no situation can justify such behavior, particularly from the head of an educational institution responsible for student welfare and safety.
The case has raised serious concerns about standards of conduct in private schools and the protection of children’s rights. Law enforcement authorities have confirmed that the matter has been referred to the prosecution for further action, while investigations continue to determine whether additional legal violations have occurred or if other individuals may be involved.
In parallel with the criminal proceedings, the Municipality of Elbasan has also taken administrative action. Officials confirmed that the director has been fined for environmental pollution, as he was seen in the video throwing students’ food on the ground, contributing to public disorder and waste.
The incident has triggered strong public reaction and debate in Albania, highlighting the importance of accountability within educational institutions. Authorities are expected to continue their investigation as more details emerge, with a focus on ensuring student safety and upholding professional and ethical standards in schools.
