A young woman has died from serious injuries sustained in a fire that broke out on September 6 in the village of Poterq in Klina, Kosovo, after her brother allegedly set fire to the bed she was sleeping in. According to Kosovo Police, the suspect, who is believed to have mental health issues, also attacked his mother with a sharp object after the incident. As a result, both women suffered serious physical injuries.

The victims were initially taken to the Peja Regional Hospital and then to the University Clinical Center of Kosovo (UCK) in Pristina, due to the severe nature of their injuries.

Police announced that the suspect was arrested at the scene. By decision of the prosecutor, he was ordered to be detained for 48 hours.

However, due to his serious mental condition, he has been placed in the psychiatric ward at the Peja Regional Hospital, where he is being kept under the care of medical personnel and the supervision of police officers.

Kosovo Police announced today, September 7, that they were informed by the medical team about the death of the young woman, who was unable to survive the injuries sustained in the fire.
