The dubious portal "todaynews35.com" has published an article titled "Exclusive - The arrest of Prime Minister Avdullah Hoti is demanded."
After fact-checking analysis by hibrid.info, it turns out that the same claim has been made before, published in July of last year.
While the title suggests that there is an official decision for an arrest warrant for Hoti from a relevant institution, the content only presents an accusation by the columnist Rron Gjinovci. So, the title of this one seems to be biased and, at the same time, does not correspond to the content of the article.
The text of the article published on the dubious portal "todaynews35.com":
Exclusive – The arrest of Prime Minister Avdullah Hoti is demanded
Civil society activist Rron Gjinovci has called for the arrest of Kosovo Prime Minister Avdullah Hoti.
Gjinovci, in a Facebook post, said that Hoti should be arrested as the second suspect for the deaths in recent weeks from the Coronavirus in Kosovo, reports Bota Sot.
His reaction comes after Prime Minister Hoti warned that a state of emergency could be declared in Kosovo, following the increase in Covid-19 cases in the country.
"It has now become completely clear that Prime Minister Hoti has intentionally not taken measures to declare a state of emergency. The prosecution should arrest suspects for the deaths of recent weeks," Gjinovci wrote on Facebook.

Analyze:
The claim made through the provocative title published by the dubious portal “todaynews35.com”, based on fact checking, has been found to be a re-publication, since the same was published in July last year by “Botasot.info”. So the same article with a tendentious title is still circulating in the digital space. The title of this article is clearly seen to have been made in such a way as to encourage readers to click on the article, the content of which appears to be different. For this reason, this article is considered “Clickbait”.
Reasoning:
The assessment as "Clickbait" is given to those texts whose title has no basis in the content of the following text. Such texts and articles aim to attract the attention of the reader or even the consumer with a sensational title by promising content that does not actually exist and are created mainly out of financial interest, that is, due to increased readability. So, this type of text is intended only to click, which can be converted into a profit for the content producer.
