Another development is expected today in the case that has shaken Fier: the court will review the security measure for three underage girls suspected of assaulting a 17-year-old. Ahead of the hearing, the mother of one of the 15-year-olds appeared before the media and, according to her account, spoke about her daughter’s serious condition as well as warnings she claims the family had previously given to institutions.
The hearing is expected to take place at the Fier Court
According to the source material, a hearing is expected to be held today at the Fier Court to determine the security measure for the three girls suspected of involvement in the assault on the 17-year-old.
The incident drew significant public attention after footage circulating widely online was published, while criminal responsibility and the role of each of the minors remain under review by the relevant authorities. At this stage, the allegations against them should be considered part of the investigative version and not as responsibilities definitively proven.
Mother of one of the minors: my daughter is in a psychiatric hospital
The mother of one of the 15-year-olds told the media that her daughter is hospitalized in a psychiatric hospital and is receiving medical treatment. She expressed concern about the minor’s condition and asked for understanding, while also expressing regret over the incident.
According to her statements, she has met her daughter twice at the hospital and claims she does not know whether the minor is aware of the videos that have gone viral. The mother also said that her daughter used the phone her parents had bought for her and that, when she returned in the early morning hours, she would tell family members she had been with friends, without giving further explanations.
Claims of lack of control and knowledge about her social circle
In her statement, the mother said she did not know her daughter’s friends or their parents, adding that she had seen them for the first time at the police station. She also stated that she does not know the family of the assaulted 17-year-old.
She also said that she had not hired a lawyer for her daughter. These statements shed light on the lack of family supervision that the parent herself publicly acknowledges, but they still do not clarify whether there had been any earlier effective intervention by social, educational or law enforcement structures.
Accusation against the school of negligence a year earlier
The strongest part of the mother’s statement concerns the institutions. According to her, the family had gone to the police several times during the past year and had also asked the school for help regarding their daughter’s problems.
She claimed that when she and her husband went to the school to speak with the administrators, the principal had them removed from the office. This is a one-sided claim made publicly by the parent and, so far, the source material contains no response from the school or the institutions to confirm or contest it.
The mother also said that she has asked the court for full treatment for her daughter. Beyond its criminal aspect, the case also appears to raise questions about how early warnings from the family were handled and whether the protection mechanisms actually functioned.
Today’s hearing is expected to clarify what measures will be sought against the three minors, while many points remain unclear to the public.
Beyond the emotional statements of family members, the case is testing not only the response of the justice system, but also the role that the school, police and social structures should have played earlier.
