A man who killed eight of his relatives, has been caught by Albanian police following a 12-hour hunt during which the fugitive challenged Prime Minister Edi Rama on Facebook to find him.
Ridvan Zykaj, 24, had confessed to shooting cousins and other family members with a Kalashnikov gun after they had accused him of being a thief.
He appeared unrepentant and even told police they were late in arresting him, according to news reports.
As a shepherd, Zykaj knew the area of Selenice in southern Albania well, complicating his capture.
The killing spree appears to have been triggered by a family lunch, where one of the victims accused Zykaj of stealing their turkeys, according to local media.
