Ermira Kacaci, the mother of 31-year-old Gert Shehu, who earlier today was seen punching the DP leader Sali Berisha during the opposition protest, rejected the accusations that her son is a criminal agent or connected to the police.
In an exclusive interview with Euronews Albania journalist, Eni Ferhati, the 31-year-old’s mother said that her son has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and has been receiving treatment for the past 5 years.
“He is neither an agent nor is he related to the police. He is sick with bipolar disorder, suffers from epicrisis, and has been treated for the last 5 years. I didn’t know where he was. In the morning I left him alone, I told him to stay at home, as if I had a premonition. He has been to the psychiatric emergency room twice, once I took him to the police because he was very ill,” said the 31-year-old’s mother.
In addition, she said that her son is being treated with the drug Tegretol and is being treated by doctor Sadik Lala.
Tegretol is an anticonvulsant that is sometimes prescribed as a mood stabilizer in patients suffering from bipolar disorder. In addition to seizures and bipolar disorders, it is also prescribed for the relief of pain in trigeminal neuralgia.
