Vasil (<\/span>Llaçi<\/span>) Laçi, anti-fascist patriot, Hero of the People, was born in the village of <\/span>Piqeras<\/span> in Saranda. He was born in <\/span>Piqeras<\/span> of Saranda (his family’s last name is <\/span>Llaçi<\/span>, but Vasili in the press of the time and then he was mistakenly known by the last name Laçi). From <\/span>a young age<\/span> he was forced to work as a porter in Saranda and Durrës, later as a servant in a hotel in Tirana. With strong patriotic feelings and driven by hatred for the Italian fascist invaders, he shot with a revolver against the King of Italy, Victor Emmanuel III, on Durrës Street, on May 17, <\/span>1941,<\/span> in Tirana. He was arrested, <\/span>tortured,<\/span> and sentenced to death (by hanging) by the fascist military court. He was hanged in Tirana, in 1941. <\/span><\/span>(In the photo: Vasil Laçi)<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
