Bahri Fazliu (1971–1998) was a Kosovo Albanian poet,[1] publicist,[2] and nationalist.

Biography

Bahri Fazliu was born in the village of Llaushë near Podujevo (Albanian: Besiana), Yugoslavia, today's Kosovo. He was the younger brother of Fahri Fazliu, PMK member who lost his life in a shoot-out with Serbian police on November 2, 1989, in "Kodra e Diellit" neighborhood in Prishtina.[3]

Bahri was one of the founders of NMLK (Albanian: Lëvizja Kombëtare për Çlirimin e Kosovës, LKÇK), and its leader after the imprisonment of Avni Klinaku.[4] NMLK was a revolutionary movement, and a constant criticizer of Democratic League of Kosovo and Ibrahim Rugova's Gandhism.[3]

He was the chief editor of the newspaper Çlirimi (English: Liberation), which would be secretly delivered inside Kosovo every three months. On May 7, 1998, he got involved in a skirmish with Serbian Armed Forces in an area called Bjeshka e Bogiqes, in the vicinity of Plav, a Montenegrin town at the border between Albania, Montenegro, and Kosovo (then Serbia, Yugoslavia), eventually getting killed. This was 4 days before the official agreement between NMLK and newly-active Kosovo Liberation Army, that would result in NMLK officially joining KLA.[3]

Legacy

There are streets in nowadays Kosovo which bear his name.[5] He would later receive the title "Hero of Kosovo" (Albanian: "Hero i Kosovës").[6][7]
