The father of the 17-year-old from Fier, who was raped by her peers a few months ago, has spoken about the girl's condition and the progress of the investigation after the incident. In an interview for the show "With an Open Heart", he revealed that the girl has returned home and has continued her course, while currently undergoing psychological treatment and taking medication.

According to the father, the 17-year-old's condition has improved and she is now better. He said that the girl goes to a psychologist about once every two weeks, while emphasizing that the psychological treatment is prescribed by the state.

"He's a little better. He's at home and continuing his course," he said.

However, the father raised concerns about the way the situation was handled after the incident. He said the family was not called to give evidence and the daughter was not questioned in connection with the investigation.

"No, not at all, not at all. Apparently not at all," the father said when asked if he or the daughter had been called to testify.
The father also indicated that after the incident, no other support was offered to the girl, except for a psychologist. According to him, no relocation was made from the environment where she is. Despite the trauma experienced, the 17-year-old has returned to the course. The father said that so far there has been no other harassment from the families of the girls involved or other people. He added that the girl does not talk to her family about the incident and does not remember it in everyday conversations.
