Commander Mujë Krasniqi fell heroically along with 41 KLA fighters on December 14, 1998, in an ambush by Serbian forces, near the Kosovo-Albania border.

Muje Krasniqi was among the first sparks of the armed struggle of the KLA in Kosovo, as well as one of the first few fighters of the KLA.

Muje Krasniqi was born on June 6, 1967 in the village of Çabiq in Klina. He completed primary school in Ujemira in Klina.

The plot of the family of the parents Muja and Shehide Krasniqi gave birth to 11 children, among them six sons, four of whom were soldiers of the KLA, and two of them, Muja e Aliu, fell martyrs.

"Muja, together with Beqë (Beqir Gashi, rhapsod and martyr) were early involved in the illegal movement, when he was a student of the high school "Luigj Gurakuqi" in Klina, in the parallels separated in Kijeva. There, next to professor Xheve Krasniqi - Lladroci (legendary witness), who guided and inspired them for patriotic actions", recalls Brahim Gashi, Muja's friend, rhapsodist and music teacher and brother of the martyr Beqir Gashi.

Since those years, in the company of the rhapsodes from Mleqani, Muja loved the song. When they organized the illegal patriotic cell, it was the year 1984, when Muja was 17 years old, to be active in this movement until his downfall.

In the open movements of Albanian protests that erupted during the 80s, Muja and Beqa lifted the revolted spirits of parents, students and teachers, singing Albanian songs about the Albanian figures who were attacking the Serbs and their Albanian-speaking Trabants.

When Beqa sang about Luigj Gurakuq, whose figure was being attacked by Albanian speakers who were jealous of the Serbs, the police and government circles were also alarmed.

These two, since then, had united the song, the organization of the Albanian resistance and later, the rifle.

Thus, when the demonstrations of 1989 took place, he, together with Sylejman Selim, ambushed the Serbian forces with weapons, in defense of the demonstrators, when on that occasion several demonstrators from the villages of Ujëmir and Çabiqi were injured.

Since 1990, it has always been the target of persecution by the Serbian militia.

The other members of this family did not stop being arrested, mistreated or persecuted during a decade.

But Muja recognized that in those years and often said that Kosovo is liberated only with the muzzle of a rifle, without denying others their patriotic contribution in other fields.

There was a siege war in Prekaz, in 1991. His uncle, warrior Vesel Selimi, was also injured in that war. Therefore, with other Selimi relatives of this village, figures later known throughout Kosovo, Sylejman and Rexhep Selimi, organize the defense of Açareva (according to the magazine "Interesi nacional" December 24, 2001, Pristina). Muja, for a decade in a row, has undertaken action after action in the illegal armed homeland. He was among the main bearers of the war and the founding of the KLA. From the first actions, he was together with Jasharaj and the fighters of Açareva.

Muje Krasniqi was among the first sparks of the armed struggle of the KLA in Kosovo, as well as one of the first few fighters of the KLA.

From 1993 to 1996, he worked and acted in deep illegality, because he was persecuted by the Serbian regime, he was forced to go on the run. In 1993, he carried out the first action, to continue with many others.

Even though he worked and acted in difficult conditions, he did not give up on Kosovo, but continued to fight with higher intensity. In October 1996, he took shelter in Prekaz, in the family of Shaban Jashari and Hamëz Jashari. Then in the Haradinaj families in Gllogjan, Brahimaj in Jabllanicë (now Shqiponjë), etc.

Muja with fellow fighters per day expanded the KLA with new fighters. When the war broke out in Kosovo, he was in the first position in the village of Lludovic.

The KLA ambushed the Serbian forces, where the enemy suffered losses. That's why the Serbs shoot in and out of school buildings and houses, when, as a sign of revenge, the teacher Halil Geci is killed.

At the funeral of this teacher, Muja was one of the three soldiers who made the public appearance of the KLA in Llaushë together with Daut Haradinaj and Rexhep Selim).

Daut Haradinaj said: "Me and Muje Krasniqi appeared in front of the mass without any mask, while Rexhepi addressed the mass with a mask, on behalf of the KLA, letting the internal and international opinion know that the KLA is the one fighting for the protection of the rights of the Albanian people and for the liberation of Kosovo from the Serbian invaders.

It was the 43rd anniversary of the birth of the legendary commander, Adem Jashari, when the KLA went from illegal action to legal action.

It was time for great oaths before the flag; time that would come with the martyrdom of women, elders, children and others until the definitive liberation of Kosovo; when this youngest and most successful army in the Balkans was making historic turns.

Already he destroyed the confusion and rumors about the existence or non-existence of the KLA, about other denigrating slogans.

But Muja himself had cooperated with everyone from all the Albanian insurgents; being close and honest with all fellow soldiers, with the people who supported him. He was distinguished as a strategist, brave, cool-headed in combat actions.

How many times had Muja gone himself, at the head of these groups, to supply the KLA with weapons, facing long walking paths, bad weather, enemy ambushes, and difficult terrain.

Meanwhile, on March 5, 1998, Mujë Krasniqi was fighting in Burojë and Vojnik, when the war was already taking large proportions. He stood out everywhere for his bravery, courage and fighting skills.

In April 1998, while performing the task given by the General Staff of the KLA, Muja was seriously injured for the second time, after the first time he was injured in the fighting in the Llulla Plain. however, he overcomes the wounds. At this time, the military hospital was located in Likoc. Doctor Fadil Beka did his best to improve Muja's condition, until the surgical intervention.

The Serbian military-police machinery knew the village of Çabiq well, because the roots of the armed resistance were found there, where commander Muje Krasniuqi, his martyred brother, also had his birthplace. Aliu.

Also, the freedom fighters of this village were trained and encouraged to fight by the great strategist, Bekim Berisha, known by the nickname Abeja. Therefore, the Serbian machine had a hard time penetrating and occupying this village. Big battles began in these parts in the spring of 1998.

Thus, such was the battle of the KLA forces in Rigjevë, in Stapanica, in the areas of the village of Çabiq, in Qendrese (former Gllarevë); frontal battle line going towards Kijeva, which was then considered the most dangerous and hottest point in Europe. For two years of war, 24 people were martyred from this village: old men, women, babies, civilians, just because they were next to the KLA, with whom they shared the pains, struggles, joys of victories and the fate of Kosovo.

Preparations were needed for new battles.

When 141 fellow fighters left for the border to send weapons to Kosovo, on December 13, 1998, in Cahan t Hasit, Mujë Krasniqi encouraged the fighters; even the wounded are not separated from them. Because this is what commander Muja himself had done, with wounds on his body, who refused to stay longer for recovery and who refused to stay away from the war, away from the fighters, away from the organized military force.

It was a difficult winter. The slopes of Shkëlzen were covered with snow. It was a dark night, it was around two past midnight, when the day of December 14 was dawning; when the watchers are ambushed first.

The war was unequal. Beqa, in this battle, was tearing through the thickness of the snow, with fellow fighters, they were also tearing down the inter-Albanian border, in Lugun e Black at Lkeni i Ahishte. The Serbian myth of the siege of the iron border, of that wall of Albanian tragedies, is collapsing. Serbian propaganda tried to cover the event, but there was a fierce battle, where commander Muje Krasniqi, with Beqa and others, broke the Serbian iron siege several times. Trying to pull their comrades from the fire, they also fall.

After the fall of Mujë Krasniqi, Brigade 113 took the name of commander Mujë Krasniqi, who during the war gave the nation 166 more martyrs.
