Musa Hoti was a Kosovan teacher and activist for the independence of Kosovo.
In 1968, he organized demonstrations in various Albanian-speaking cities in Kosovo, Montenegro and Macedonia; his activism led the Yugoslav government to consider him a dangerous opponent.
After emigrating to Brussels, he joined the National Movement for the Liberation of Kosovo, of which he was one of the leaders. In 1981, he shot to death Stojan Djerić and wounded Redzo Zuko, two Yugoslav consular agents, in self-defence.« Meurtre d'un membre de l'ambassade yougoslave », La Libre Belgique, 6 August 1981.Miranda Vickers, Between Serb and Albanian: a History of Kosovo., Columbia University Press, 1998, p. 224 ; online After several failed attempts by the Serbian secret services, he was assassinated on January 16, 2004.Thierry Remacle, « Meurtre dans le parking Loi », La Dernière Heure, 17 January 2004.
