Almost 26 years after the fall of Communism in Albania,  those persecuted by the intolerant Stalinist regime have little hope that the state will ever identify around 6,000 remains of people who were executed or died in regime camps and prisons.

Prenk Gjetaj, head of the Pristina government’s commission for missing persons, told a UN delegation on Tuesday that Belgrade was still hiding secrets which could illuminate the fate of more than 1,700 people still missing since the end of the 1998-99 conflict in Kosovo.
