He was born in Shkod&euml;r in 1888. He completed his primary and secondary education in his hometown, while for his higher education, he completed his philosophy and theology studies in Innsbruck, Austria. He was ordained a priest on July 30, 1919. He held the first mass after returning to his homeland, at the Church of Our Lady, in Rozafa Castle. For ten years he served as parish priest in Mirdita Abbey. He was arrested on August 22, 1950, because he did not compromise with the state and was sentenced to 20 years of imprisonment. He was released in 1959. After the closing of the churches, he lived near his grandchildren. He was buried in the Rrmaji cemetery (the Catholic cemetery of Shkodra). <em>(In the photo: Dom Ndre Lufi)<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif;\">Text:<\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif;\"> <em>Encyclopedic dictionary of victims of communist terror &#8211; Vol. V <\/em>, &#8220;West Print&#8221;, Institute for the Study of Crimes and Consequences of Communism, Tirana, 2016, page 103-104.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif;\">Photo: <\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif;\">&copy; https:\/\/www.voal.ch\/don-ndre-lufi-ishte-trim-nga-fritz-radovani\/<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif;\">Graphic processing: <\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif;\">AHCF<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Shkod\u00ebr passed away Ndre Lufi, a Catholic clergyman.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4130,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8371","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-vdekje"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
