He called the incident disturbing, while he welcomed the quick response of the Kosovo Police.
"I completely agree. Another disturbing security incident. It is good to see that the Kosovo Police reacted by investigating the case more thoroughly. Possible violations by the Police should be examined like any other violation. I wish the victim a speedy recovery," wrote Rohde .
I completely agree. Yet another worrying security incident. It's good to see that @Kosovo_Police reacted with extensively investigating the case. Possible misconduct by the police needs to be scrutinized like any other. I wish the victim a speedy recovery. https://t.co/VqNBTSpXfC
