Yesterday, prosecutors dropped charges against Aleksander Vacaj, who was accused of hiring two men to slash his ex-girlfriend's face last year in Chinatown. The ex-girlfriend, Artende Gjeli, had been working at 123 Baxter Street when two men grabbed and slashed her. An off-duty NYPD detective had been on the scene and shot the attackers, killing one (pictured, the cut on the head that the detective received during the altercation). According to the Post, the prosecutors' suffered when Gjeli apparently "changed her story about why her ex-boyfriend had been harassing her" and then Vacaj's lawyer "announced he would grill the victim on a host of alleged crimes, including drug smuggling, immigration fraud, shoplifting and perjury." The Daily News adds that Vacaj's lawyer also accused Gjeli of stalking Vacaj, "She was calling my client more than my client was calling her." Vacaj, who served two months in prison, said, "I never had anything to do with anything, and justice was done."
