Gani Bey Kryeziu

[2] Gani grew up in Serbia, attended a military academy in Sarajevo, and served in the Serbian army in early '20s, as well as aide-de-camp for Alexander I of Yugoslavia, and for a short time in Albania during 1925 after the June Revolution and Zogu coming into power.

[2] In 1949, he founded the "League of Albanian Political Refugees" in Prizren, which headquarters will reside in Shkup, and a military base in Peja, together with Cen Elezi (1884 - 1949), and helped sending insurgents to Albania with the support of American, British (who had intervened to the Yugoslavian side for his release[4]) and Yugoslavian intelligence, somehow lacking coordination with the "National Committee for a Free Albania" of Mit'hat Frashëri where his brother Said was a co-founder.

[5][6] Gani's and Elezi's men would cross the border in the area of Prizren, into the Albanian territory, declaring war on the communists in power and agitating for an Albanian-Yugoslavian friendship.

Cen Elezi would over-trust the Yugoslavs, he got arrested by the Yugoslavian authorities, and considering the nationalist background of his family and lack of the credibility that Kryeziu had, would spend months in interrogation rooms, until his body gave up and died in 1949.

[7] On February 28, 1950, the New York Times reported that two teams of Albanian anti-communist units, trained in Malta, had landed in Albania with instructions to contact Gani's men in the north.
