Bota Sot is published by Media Print and is owned by Xhevdet Mazrekaj, a diaspora businessman. The newspaper was published for the first time in 1995, and initially solely published abroad. The paper editorially supports the Democratic Party of Albania and has supported two previous presidents of Kosovo from that party, Ibrahim Rugova and Sali Berisha.[2]
A number of the newspaper's journalists have been assassinated. Xhemail Mustafa, a journalist and advisor to President Rugova, was assassinated in November, 2000. Bota Sot journalist Bekim Kastrati was assassinated in October, 2001, along with two other men who were in his car at the time, in the village of Lauša, near Prishtina.[3] Bardhyl Ajeti wrote daily editorials for Bota Sot, supporting the anticrime campaign of international authorities in arresting former members of the Kosova Liberation Army (KLA).[4] He was shot by unidentified assassins in June of 2005.[5]
