There are gruesome scenes that took place on Saturday at the Avia gas station in Geuensee LU: Over a dozen people from Syria, Iraq, North Macedonia and Switzerland attacked each other with various objects shortly after 7 p.m. In the end, the 20-year-old Kosovar Ardit N. * from the canton of Lucerne is dead (Blick reported). The young man really only wanted to go out for a few hours.
What exactly happened at the gas station remains in the dark days after the bloody act. Ali N. * (49), the uncle of the victim, said to Blick on Monday: “Ardit’s body is still in the Institute of Forensic Medicine. We couldn’t see him yet. We hope that the body will be released soon so that we can say goodbye to him and bury him in his homeland of Kosovo. “
“Ardit’s parents are doing very badly”
The little that the family knows about the death of Ardit N. is extremely brutal: “We only know that he was killed with a knife stab in the upper body. But apparently the perpetrators are also said to have used stones and a hammer – we don’t know whether Ardit was the same. “
N. leaves his parents, two little sisters and a brother. “Ardit’s parents are doing very badly,” says the uncle.
Particularly bitter: The murdered man actually wanted to settle the dispute at the crime scene, his family is convinced. “Apparently he just wanted to intervene and became an innocent victim.”
Dozens of friends and relatives who gathered at the crime scene on Monday to lay flowers and candles also believe in this theory. “I don’t think it was about money or drugs. Ardit wasn’t the target, he became an innocent victim, »someone says. Thousands of expressions of grief can also be read on the Internet. “My condolences and a lot of strength and courage from the family and all those left behind,” is one of them.
Five Syrians in custody
There will probably only be certainty when the authorities have finished the investigation. “The Lucerne police attach the highest priority to the investigation into the fatal confrontation in Geuensee,” says spokesman Simon Kopp to Blick. There are video cameras in several places around the crime scene. “The evaluation of the seized picture material is running at the moment,” says Kopp.
The Lucerne police have already identified all people actively involved and will now question them: “There are currently five people from Syria in custody.” Nothing can currently be said about the motif and the background. One person is still in the hospital.
