The murder of Gramoz Palushi took place on September 4, 2004, at Tsilivi[1] village in Zakynthos, Greece, when the 20-year-old Albanian Gramoz Palushi, who was celebrating the victory of the Albania national football team against the Greece national football team, was killed by a drunk[1] Greek during a fight that broke out after the match.[2][3]

The event was followed by widespread protests in various areas of Albania and Greece. The perpetrator of the murder, Panagiotis Kladis, initially sentenced to life imprisonment, had his sentence reduced to 22 years by the Greek courts in early 2010.
