Part twenty-one
Memorie.al publishes some archival documents issued by the Authority for the Information of the Files of the former State Security, where there is a voluminous file (the processing form file with 433 pages and the investigative and judicial file with 632 pages) in charge of Gjet Kadel, originating from the village of Bulshar in Oroshi of Mirdita and living in Bushnesh and Mamurras of Kurbin, former political prisoner in the communist regime of Enver Hoxha and his successor, Ramiz Alia, who spent 16 years in communist camps and prisons, as in Spaç, Burrel, etc. As we will see from the documents that are in the file in charge of Gjet Kadel, which is published for the first time by Memorie.al, the surveillance and pursuit of him began in 1957, when he was 17 years old, with the information report of the State Security officer, Fahri Kraja, (based on the data of the Security associate with the nickname “Dylli i Bardhë”, with the approval of the Head of the Department of Internal Affairs of the Kruja district, lieutenant colonel Muhedin Këxhalliu) , continued even during the period he was in camps and prisons, such as in Spaç, where after the revolt of May 1973, Gjeta was sentenced again, as he was the main ideator for raising the flag without the communist star, continuing then in the prison of Burrel, with the reports-information of the Operative Worker, Piro Nuredini, etc., about Gjeta’s conversations with other convicts of that prison, such as: Pjetër Arbnori, Daut Gumeni, Abdulla Sallaku, Spartak Ngjela, Avni Aliko, Luan Burimi , Çaush Çoku, Kapllan Resuli, Bardhosh Gjonzeneli, Bashkim Shehu, etc. The surveillance and follow-up of Gjet Kadel continued even after his release from prison in 1987, continuing until January 1991, with the collapse of the communist regime, when his file was finally closed and archived in the secret archive of the former State Security. In the same way, an important place in the said files is also occupied by letter correspondence of Gjeta and his family, with their father, Pjetër Kadeli, former soldier of the Monarchy of Zogu, who had blown up the prison cells of Internal Branch of Rrëshen on July 28, 1950, stayed for some time in the mountains on the run, and then in 1951, secretly returned to Mirdita, took his son, Gjoni, and escaped to Yugoslavia and then to the USA- es, where he stayed as a political emigrant, until the beginning of the 90s, when he returned permanently to Albania. During this period of almost 35 years since Gjet Kadeli has been followed and monitored by the State Security, a total of 33 associates of the State Security have been engaged and activated against him, who have given their reports, starting from “White Wax” in 1957, until the “Mountain Swallow” in 1990, which will be reflected in full, as they are in the relevant files.

I Muhamet Kosovrasti, the convict Gjet Kadel, I knew in 1973, in the Reeducation Department 303 Spaç, in the month of April, we did not have any intimacy with him. In the month of April, on the 4th of 1974, I was with him in the dungeon and in the presence of Apostle Thanos, Gjet Kadeli said that: “I am an enemy of communism, I and my family are like that, my father and a brother are in SH. B.A., where they live wonderfully, I have friends and cousins in Italy, who are very well.
My father has always helped me economically, he has brought us all foreign goods, there is a standard there, while we Albanians suffer from poverty. They persecuted and arrested my father, but he escaped from the dungeons of Rrëshen and later came to Albania and dragged my brother away, fleeing to Yugoslavia. I have lived well as a family, while in cooperatives and agricultural enterprises, they suffer economically and one cannot even feed the family. Communism is merciless and has ruined our lives. I remain an enemy forever…
After I read the minutes, I saw that my statements were written correctly, they are true, so I sign them…..

The source announces that on January 8, 1975, while talking to Gjet Kadel, Gjeta told him: “This power came to an end this year”, the future heroes are Simon Jubani and his friends. The Party leader started it with blood and is ending it with blood. The two superpowers have agreed to liquidate this hearth of Turkshaks, these neo-Turks are a joke, the shame of the world, who is a man, does not fall into their hands. Gjet Kadeli told him that, on January 11, Rep. Soc. Lab.
“DARDHA” agent
Rating of the giver:
The data has operational value as it refers to the hostile activity of these persons, who are in active processing 2/A. This agent has begun to enter well into effective treatments.
DUTIES:
Your first efforts should be to gain the trust of Pjetër Arbnor, Gjet Kadel, Daut Gumen and Uran Kalakula. Open conversations about the situation, in some cases you can object and start debates, when it is said that the end is coming, and tell them that; I also thought like that when I was free, that the end came and I didn’t think of being discovered, but they discovered me and almost gave me the bullet, that’s why it’s not easy and they don’t hand it over, as we think.
Regarding what Gjet Kadeli says that Simon Jubani is a future hero, I contradict them and tell them that; I’m not in your opinion, but I’m with him since sometimes, Simon makes mistakes and rushes into actions, and I shouldn’t be so open that we don’t win anything (this is to gain trust).
Operational measures:
The part of the report dealing with Gjet Kadel was printed in a copy and placed in his form file.

The source reports that, on March 12, 1975, in the canteen with Gjet Kadel, Gjeta said to him: Listen here. This brave Ndue Kola was brought for me, but I have spared the soul of a spiritual and national hero, Simon Juban, who for the courage he has, deserves a golden bust and which he will have tomorrow and the third in I can’t enter, if all the shehlers and hoxhallar labr, who are martyring this fukara people, are mobilized.
Today, Albania is becoming the shame and gas of the world, as long as the Turks are in power, they are worse than the early Anatolians, just know that they are gnawing from the inside, the worm of the evil they have done, the crimes are not leave alone even in sleep. They are so enraged that they remember that they mentioned your name thousands of times on the radio, they will gain authority, but authority is gained with freedom, and here there is no freedom, until the red plague (the Party) is eradicated.
He told him; with all this, the Party will be in centuries that it has become the spiritual property of the masses. What do you say, tutkun, this party is dead, since you left, until you entered this dead-end road, soon you will change your path too, I will be ashamed of what you have been, I order you, do not harm them Who cares, you will escape from staying in prison, listen to Gjeta, Gjet Kadeli said to the source?
He answered you; thanks for the kind words.
“Pear”
Rating of the giver:
This data is valuable because Gjet Kadeli shows hostile activity against the Party and our People’s Power, calling them enemies of the masses.
Task:
Talk to Gjeta and tell him that, it’s true that I told you that day, but you should know that I’ve been burned twice, that’s why I didn’t have the courage to tell him that, even now, you know that these things wash away, immediately.
What about Ndue Kola, which you told me, that they brought him to me, for what reason they brought him to you, did you report him, or why, or as friends you might be?
Operational measures:
To study the data of Ndue Kola and the next note that is in question, about the undermining of the “Stalin” monument, and on this basis, a concrete task is drawn up.

The source announces that, on March 21, 1975, in the “Voice of the People”, the news about the release by the Chinese Assembly of 293 war criminals was published. While reading this news, Pjeter Arbnori said: Great victory (with irony), of those who remained alive, after 26 years and more, 293 people were released.
This is better than our slaughterhouse that, 30 years passed and they did nothing, said Daut Gumeni.
Meanwhile, Gjet Kadeli said: Here the work changes because; in our country, the average life is 68 years, so the longer we live, the longer the prison term should be.
In a word, Uran Kalakula intervened, yellow Asia is surpassing Europe.
On 20/3/1975, at dinner, as soon as the radio aired at 8 p.m., he was giving an interview with the artists, when Vaçe Zela took the floor, praising the Party, Daut Gumeni said: “You are a dog, everyone is getting into his bag (we are talking about the main leader of the Party and the state), Vačen and Kurdisi, I have had regard for her and at this moment, it is fading away from me”. What about you, Daut, you don’t know that method: “tighten, release”, Pjeter Arbnori waited for you, this is his favorite method, today he sleeps, tomorrow he rubs your arms and so on until the end,
“And don’t let it be long, Peter,” said Dauti, “for faith, the hand of hypocrites and hypocrites can’t be endured, in the beginning and in the end, always, always”.
“PEAR”
Assessment of the giver: The data has value because it is about hostile activity by the implicated persons who are in II/A processing.
TASK: Talk to Peter and tell him that; I don’t understand either, because they will have released them, don’t you think they started from the fact that the Chinese are too many and have nothing to do with us, 293 war criminals?!
- For Daut Gumeni, he did not give you a task because he will be given a line of behavior that has been prepared for him.
- For Gjet Kadel, he will be given a task on the conversation of some things, which is also required by the Department of Internal Affairs Fier, as it is related to some of their facilities.
Chief’s note. Sec. Lead with concrete tasks and follow behavior towards Pjetër Arbnori.

The source announces that, talking to Gjet Kadel in the canteen, on 3/26/1975. Gjeta told him: “Now a fight broke out between them, they started eating each other. Their salvation would only be a connection with a friend of the U.S.A. These are ready, but the many crimes, do you tie your hands. Think how much bloodshed they have caused, what stupidity and shame, until the “judgment of God”. Their adventures are of criminals, either in dictatorship or in the economy. Know one thing: Here, that religion will triumph, which was, Christ lives and will live, in the hearts of the people. Their power brought so much immorality that this country became the gas of the world. Don’t you remember that who wants this power? Who supports him from outside? No one. Not even China itself, it is not with these people, it is the people’s dollar that they barbarically steal and pay thugs abroad to say a word about them. But the rope has tightened now. Between the People’s Army and the Security, there is a fight to the death, that’s why the old cadres are being swept away, and the Army is being filled with spies who are taken from soldiers and dressed as officers, and this shows the degeneration of this power of thugs who steal wealth of the people, as an official law. Think that the life of the people has become black. The people are waiting for a turning point where the lost morality, honor and wealth will be replaced”.
I have nothing to say, he said, well said, but where do they find this courage, they have?
Gjeta said: “Their hysteria and madness that originates in the barbaric communist dogma itself.” “I have told you once again – Gjeta told him – that it is a great luck for you, that you are in prison among these people, otherwise you would remain disgraced as a family, generation after generation. Be convinced that the end of these is at the door.”
They are protected by China, or Gjet, listen to how they never get stuck in the mud, I told him. “China doesn’t even ask about them – said Gjeta, – nor does anyone allow China to stick their noses in here, why don’t they make a treaty?! These Turkish people know this well, that’s why they behave like a wolf in bars, they themselves created this black cage. Today, Albania resembles this Burrel prison from corner to corner. Prison outside, prison inside and this until the sultans are in power (for the main leader of the Party and the state).
“PEAR”
Rating of the giver:
The data has operational value as this enemy shows unbridled hostile activity against our People’s Power Party.
TASK: Talk to Gjeta, without opening up too much in the conversation, until you gain his complete trust and then, tell him that, as far as we have talked, it was lucky that you are in prison, that I would be ashamed, it is one thing for you to be clear that everything can happen, but only one thing will never happen, that I will be a deceiver of my friends, and this has been shown for a long time. But it is one thing that, we have talked enough that the end of these things is inevitable, nothing is being done and that is why I get so angry all of a sudden, that I hate myself, when we talk, nothing is done in favor of ours. And during the conversations, when the opportunity arises and you go out on the Ndue Kola trail, you tell him that; he told me that for me, they brought him here, for me, as far as I know him, I have the impression that he is a good and determined friend.

Note of the Head of Section:
I agree with the measures and tasks, Gjet Kadeli is a sworn enemy of the Party and the Government, therefore the agent “Dardha” should go deeper into his processing, therefore it is not excluded that he has a joint activity with Pjetër Arbnor, therefore his threads and connections with other convicts must be discovered.
