131 years since the birth of the greatest film comedian and most famous Roma - Charlie Chaplin

Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin, better known as Charlie Chaplin (April 16, 1889 - December 25, 1977) was an English comedian, director, and composer in the silent film era.

Chaplin is one of the most creative and influential characters of the silent film era.

In 1999, the American Film Institute named Chaplin the tenth greatest male film legend of all time. George Bernard Shaw called Chaplin "the only genius in the film industry"

 

Charles Spencer Chaplin was reportedly born in East Street, Walworth, London, England. His parents, from whom he learned to sing, were entertainers at the Music Hall. His father, Charles Spencer Chaplin, was a vocal soloist and actor, while his mother, Hannah Chaplin, was a singer and actress who performed under the pseudonym Lily Harley.

 

His great-grandmother, a paternal grandmother, was a member of the Smiths d'Or, something he was very proud of, although he later described it in his autobiography as "the skeleton in our family closet." Chaplin's parents, although never divorced, stopped living together until 1891, before Charlie turned three.

 

Chaplin's health began to deteriorate significantly after the completion of his latest film, The Countess of Hong Kong. As early as 1977, he had difficulty speaking and was driving a wheelchair. Chaplin died on Christmas Day, 1977, at the age of 88, at his home in Corsica, Sir Weve, Switzerland.

 

Chaplin was buried in the cemetery of Corsier Sir Weve in Voice, Switzerland. On March 1, 1978, his body was stolen by two unemployed immigrants, Roman Vardas of Poland and Gancho Ganev of Bulgaria, who wanted to extort money from the Chaplin family. But their attempt failed.

 

The thieves were caught and the body was found near Lake Geneva, eleven weeks after the theft. The body was then buried under almost two meters of concrete, in order to prevent further attempts to steal it.

Amdi Bajram after the amputation of his leg: I lost my leg, but not the positive and optimistic spirit!

The MP and President of the Roma Union, Amdi Bajram (63), is spending these days in a homely atmosphere and is recovering from a leg amputation. He says the operation took place about 15 days ago and he is feeling better.

 

- Sugar did its thing, my right leg was amputated, up to my knee. I feel good now and I'm home. My family is by my side, everyone cares about me and I like their attention and love.

We do not know what life can bring us, so it is said that health should always come first. But I'm a very ambitious person, no stopping. I am waiting for my wound to heal, and then I will put on a prosthesis. I know it will not be easy, I will learn to walk again, but I have always been a fighter, for me teaching is not an option. I will stand on my feet again, and with new strength I will return to politics. I remain president of the Union of Roma, my place is there. - says the MP.

 

He adds that he never gave up optimism, he always believed that everything would be fine.

- I did not fall mentally at any moment. I behave well, positivity has always been a strength of my character. There are many worse things in life, so I look at things and I am fully committed to a speedy recovery and a return to the old way of life. Medicine is moving forward, there are modern prostheses with which I will have no problem in mobility. The cheerful spirit does not leave me and I thank all those who wished me good health in these moments - said Bajram.

One thing is for sure, if new election lists are made for the early parliamentary elections, Amdi Bajram would surely get a high position, probably in IE 2.

Croatia: Ivica Hudurovic - Roma prisoner, proved that the cell in Lepoglava is too small

It was housed in a 5.5 m2 cell with two other inmates, while the European standard is at least 3m2 per person.

The Constitutional Court found that Ivica Hudurovic, 62, had been human rights abused because the conditions in which he was placed were serving nine years and 11 months in prison.

 

Hudurovic has been convicted of trying to extort 40,000 kuna (just over 5,000 euros) by falsely pretending to be the Lepoglava Judge of some citizens period from February 2012 – March 2018, then transferred to the prison in Gospic, because there was no cell of the prescribed size.

 

Hudurovic complained that his cell was not up to standard and that he was denied health care because he had vision problems due to poor lighting in the cell. He also complained that he had pelvic pain and that it was all just because he was Roma, and that like all other Roma he was discriminated against because his right to work and professional legal aid were denied.

Larissa, Greece: Covid-19 tests to be carried out at Roma settlements

Eleven Roma settlements in the area of Thessaly will be subjected to rigorous inspections starting later this week to locate and contain possible coronavirus outbreaks, a meeting of health and local officials concluded on Tuesday.

 

The decision to carry out widespread testing on residents at the central Greek region’s Roma settlements came as Thessaly Regional Governor Kostas Agorastos met with health and viral disease experts and officials, including the heads of two local hospitals.

 

The meeting comes after dozens of residents at a settlement in Nea Smyrni on the outskirts of the city of Larissa tested positive for the highly infectious virus last week and were placed in quarantine.

 

Health officials are growing increasingly concerned about outbreaks at such settlements, where residents live in cramped conditions and may not have access to basic sanitation measures.

The inspections will be carried out by teams formed by the National Organization for Public Health (EODY).
