The information portal "Indeksonline" today (January 12) published an article titled "The leader of a party declares against sending police to the North!".
This is a statement/request by the chairman of the Egyptian Liberal Party in Kosovo, Veton Berisha.
After fact-checking by hibrid.info, it has been confirmed that the author of this article has put a non-explanatory title. Based on the title, it is implied that the request not to send police officers from Berisha was made selectively, only for police officers from the Egyptian community.
Whereas, the news is clearly clarified only in its content. So, in its content it is understood that Berisha, through a post on Facebook, said that police officers from the Egyptian community should not be sent to the North, with the reasoning that there are no Egyptian residents of this community in that part of Kosovo.
The title implies that the statement is made for the Police institution in general, without considering communities. So, it is not clarified that this call is made only for members of the Egyptian community.

Parts of the article published in "Indeksonline":
The chairman of the Egyptian Liberal Party in Kosovo, Veton Berisha, has come out with an absurd stance.
In a post on Facebook, the former MP said that police officers from the Egyptian community should not be sent to the North, because there are no Egyptians there.
Berisha made this entire scandalous statement while attempting to respond to his rival, Elbert Krasniqi.
The Chairman of the Egyptian Liberal Party in Kosovo, Veton Berisha, said in a Facebook post that police officers from the Egyptian community should not be sent to the North, because there are no Egyptians there.
"⛔️Our "Egyptian" minister is calling for Egyptians to apply for Kosovo police but to serve in the North in Serb-majority settlements!! ⛔️???? I mean, apply to replace the Serbian police officers who resigned a long time ago! How long have you been calling on delegates from the Egyptian community in an area where there are no Egyptians!????? (here)
His statement came as a result of the call of the Minister of Local Government Administration (MLGA) from this community, Elbert Krasniqi, who invited members of the Roma, Ashkali and Egyptian (RAE) communities to apply for the competition for the admission of police officers from non-majority communities (the competition was open for the Regional Police Directorate in North Mitrovica). (here)
Despite the fact that it is only about the Egyptian community in this case, the author of the article did not clarify this in the title, leaving room for it to be understood that it is about the Kosovo Police in general.
