Rome, Aug. 12.
The assassination of a "great Albanian patriot" named Daut Hoggia near the Greek-Albanian frontier, by Greek agents, it is alleged, is reported from Tirana by the Italian news agency.
The Greek authorities, the report adds placed a price on his head several years ago as a result of his agitation for the cession of the frontier region Ciamuria to of Albania.
It is alleged that Daut Hoggi head was cut off and paraded by the assassins in Ciamurian villages as a warning to other "patriots."
The despatch asserts that the crime follows a series of "oppressive acts" against Albanians in Ciamuria in recent months.—Reuten.
