Biography
Born in Kosovo, Serbia, Yugoslavia, Bajraj was granted residency in Mexico as a refugee thanks to the International Parliament of Writers that offered him the options of France, Italy or Mexico. He fled the war in the Kosovo for a more peaceful Mexico City where he resided with his wife (a physician) and two children.
Bajraj died on 22 June 2022 in Mexico City due to a brain tumor.[1]
