When they read the name Didi Bicaku, they say: "In the name of the people, you are under arrest! Hands up!" They check the house from corner to corner, her sister, Semija was sitting on the couch, down there was the English language book that Didi was learning and they were not supposed to see it because foreign languages were forbidden. She stood proud, shocked, without tears in her eyes, put on her thick coat, her sister's husband threw a large woolen scarf over her shoulders, and security took her handcuffed. They pushed him to "Skënderbej" Square, where hundreds of others had gathered, threatened by the weapons of those who guarded them, and walked towards the New Prison.

At the prison door, Didi waited for almost two hours, they had to enter one by one. He went through the big gate, then the next gate, they pushed him to a dungeon door. There were many people in there and it was completely dark. She met there Sabiha Kasimati who unfortunately was executed by firing squad in 1951. They were the only two females prisoners.
