General surgeon, KLA doctor Sherif Krasniqi has passed away at the age of 61.
Sheriff Krasniqi, from the village of Leskovec, has changed his life today in Prizren, where he lived and worked. It was friends, colleagues and relatives who shared the sad news of the death of the KLA veteran.
Dr. Krasniqi has been engaged in treating the wounds of soldiers in two wars, in the Kosovo Liberation Army, in the region of Vrrin and those of Albanians in North Macedonia.
“He was the bravest doctor, who loved Kosovo’s freedom more than anything”
He was also a general surgeon at the Regional Hospital of Prizren.
For the death of Sherif Krasniqi, many fellow fighters and personalities have expressed their condolences, one of them being the journalist Flamur Vezaj, who has been living with his family in Boston, USA for several years.
He writes that it is normal that after death everyone says good words, but Dr. Sheriff Krasniqi deserves it all.
“A sad news came to me today from Prizren! Surgeon Sherif Krasniqi just changed his life!
It is normal for everyone to say good words after death, but Dr. Sherif deserves it! He was a humble, dignified, honest surgeon and never took advantage of power! I met the doctor at the end of 2000 when I started working as a volunteer in the surgery department and then in the emergency department of Prizren Hospital!
The start of the war in Macedonia found me in an emergency! At the time when Dr. Sherifi was a caretaker, I always had extra work, as he was the only surgeon who, after 2 o’clock in the morning, secretly brought Albanian soldiers to the hospital (since the Turkish KFOR soldiers who were staying in the yard should not find out) who were injured during the fighting in North Macedonia today!
So he was the one who treated and cleaned the war wounds of the Albanian soldiers with my assistance in hall no. 5 at that time! So this was Dr. Sherif who never used to drink!
Condolences to the beloved family, may God give them the strength to face this pain for the premature loss of their man who carried a lot of value! Condolences to the friends and those who knew the surgeon Krasniqi!”
