Hasan Bej Prishtina (aka Hasan-bej Shishtoviq in Albanian, Hasan-beg Šištоvić in Serbian, later he adopted the name Hasan-bej Prishtina because of his stature in the town under the Ottomans) (1873 - 1933) was briefly prime minister of Albania in December 1921.
During the 1920s, Pristina led the Kosovo Committee which organized Albanian kachak formations against the Yugoslav state.
He was imprisoned by Belgrade for a period, was released in 1931, and was killed in Paris in 1933 by a fellow Albanian, possibly over a bloodfeud.
