The Albanian-language online portal "GazetaMetro.net", yesterday (September 30), published an article titled "The Pristina inspector who was caught taking a 12 thousand euro bribe is a member of Vetëvendosje".
Meanwhile, the denial from the Vetëvendosje Movement was immediate. In the reaction published on the official Vetëvendosje Prishtina Facebook page, it is stated that the news published on the aforementioned portal is false.
Self-determination reaction:
"The Construction Inspector in the Municipality of Pristina, Gafurr Rexha, is not part of the Vetëvendosje Movement! He left the Vetëvendosje Movement at the time when those who later joined the PSD entity emerged, so this person has not been a member of the Movement for a long time."".

Analyze:
Based on the analysis of verified facts, it appears that the Metro newspaper article was immediately denied by Vetëvendosje. In the absence of other facts, this analysis cannot be completely complete and as a result, hibrid.info cannot fully confirm whether this news is true or false. However, it can be said with complete truth that the party discussed in this Gazetametro.com article, the Vetëvedosje political entity, has denied the news. For this reason, VV's objection is sufficient for this news to be categorized as "Denyed".
Reasoning:
Denial
The “Demant” rating is an additional rating, which is given in cases where the media determines that the published content is in one of the above categories of negative ratings, and in accordance with this knowledge denies it 1) in accordance with the facts 2) in a visible manner, in accordance with the principles of publishing denials.
Media outlets that have published the original verified content, if they have published contact information on their pages, will always be contacted to comment on claims that prove to be controversial, giving each of them the opportunity to correct errors in this way. In such cases, the analysis published on the hibrid.info platform will further indicate that the assessed content was subsequently denied.
