Bahri Fazliu was born in the village of Llaushë near Podujevë, Kosovo, at the time in Yugoslavia. He was the younger brother of Fahri Fazliu, PMK member who lost his life in a shoot-out with Yugoslav police on 2 November 1989, in "Kodra e Diellit" neighborhood in Pristina.[1]
He was the chief editor of the newspaper Çlirimi (English: Liberation), which would be secretly delivered inside Kosovo every three months.[citation needed]
On May 7, 1998, he got involved in a skirmish with the Yugoslav Army in an area called Bjeshka e Bogiqes, in the vicinity of Plav, a Montenegrin town at the border between Albania, Montenegro, and Kosovo (then Serbia, Yugoslavia), eventually getting killed. This was 4 days before the official agreement between NMLK and newly-active Kosovo Liberation Army, that would result in NMLK officially joining KLA.[1]
