Marea, Aleppo, Syrian Arab Republic, May 28, 2012: Following an investigation on an organ trafficking chain connected with the police in Kosovo and the alleged assassination of an internationally protected war crime witness, somebody thought that I should die too sometime around January 2012. Since I've had enough evidence to back up that it was the government and the very subjects of my journalistic investigation involved in the attempt, I filed a case in court and decided to leave the country the next day.
