Andin Hoti also spoke to the online newspaper "sinjali.com", where he emphasized that the remains that will be returned to Kosovo are not related to his father, but belong to the victims of the Rezallë Massacre.
"It's some misinformation, or some deliberate misinformation. It has nothing to do with my father's remains. The remains of the Rezallë Massacre that were found in the mass graves of Kishevak are to be returned, but they will be returned on Thursday, not today. I don't know why this news came out like this. It has nothing to do with my father," he told Sinjali.com.
