29 Prill 2020, 11:00, English CNA

CNA.al announced a few days ago the publication of the scandal 128 million euros with the incinerator of Tirana, after the publication of the affair with the incinerator of Elbasan, 22 million euros, and 28 million euros of the incinerator of Fier.

CNA.al showed with concrete documents and facts, that after the company Integreted Energy BV SPV, registered in Tirana on August 31, 2017, on the day of signing the contract with the Albanian government and the then Minister of Environment, Lefter Koka, was a company that had sole shareholder Integreted Energy BV, which was a dutch company.

But contrary to what was advertised, so what was said by the government and the mayor of Tirana that it was a dutch company, indeed behind it stood Klodian Zoto, the incinerator of Fier and Elbasan, together with Ernesto Granelli.

The latter an italian citizen, who was involved in the construction of incinerators in Fier and Elbasan and also another name, Giuseppe Ciafaglione, who is the administrator of the company in Tirana, and in the Dutch representation, of Klodian Zoto. (Read here)

But CNA.al will bring today other exclusive documents. We made it clear yesterday, that Integreted Energy was a company where Klodian Zoto was hiding behind it, and it was registered at Delflandlaan 1 Queens Tower in Amsterdam, as part of a group of companies where traces were lost.

But these were dozens of companies with the same address, and they were part of the mother company, Residence Corporate Services BV, where inside was involved Almares Menagment company, which is co-director of Intgreted Energy BV company.

But what happened?

We will bring with documents, how Klodian Zoto signed with Almares?representatives, which show that he is a co-shareholder. Below we will bring some decisions of different dates, which are of 2018, 2019 and 2020.

In January 2018, Klodian Zoto signed for the board of Integreted Energy, and Hans Wenner signed for the second director, and the seal of the company Integreted Energy BV in the Netherlands, which bears the number 666 71 752.

This is a document, called the decision of the board of directors, who have signed with what is called Shehholder, ie the sole shareholder of the Dutch company, Integreted Energy BV, and sign two persons, Klodian Zoto and Hans Werner, according to this document in english.

Then another document appears, which is dated on March 15, 2019. Klodian Zoto no longer signs this document, but as we showed yesterday, Zoto was withdrawn, and Giuseppe Ciaffaglione was appointed director, who is also the co-administrator of the company registered in Albania.

The document is signed by two citizens, Marc Lappat as director B, and Giuseppe Ciaffaglione as director A. This document was also made to appoint the co-administrator of the company Ajola Kodra, who will be co-director with Giuseppe Ciaffaglione in the company Integreted Energy BV SPV in Tirana.

Here, too, we see that this document is stamped by Integreted Energy BV, and Marc Lappat, signed as a representative of Almares Menagment BV. Further, we have another document dated July 18, 2019, of the Partners Assembly of the company Integreted Energy BV SPV, where the financial statements of the company are signed, and the only partners who sign are Integreted Energy BV, Giuseppe Ciaffaglione and Almares Menagment BV as director B, but the person?s name is not written.

But we remember here, that one of the managers of Almares Menagment BV is Thomas Walter Hansmann. In the third document that we are bringing, is a decision of the Assembly of Partners of January 2020, where something has been added to the company?s activity, but for the company Integreted Energy BV the director A, Thomas Hansman, who is part of the company Almares, which you can see in the full structure of Residence Corporate Services and in Almares Menagment BV, names that appear frequently and another firm, which doesn?t seem to be either Ciaffaglione?s or any other name.

And if you look closely all documents, firms can by very rarely the same, which raises strong suspicions that these may be merely formalities performed in the offices of Albania. Not to mention, that with a simple investigation by the prosecution, it can be verified in the TIMS system, whether these foreign citizens who have signed in Albania on behalf of these companies, have entered and exited, as the Dutch company stamp is missing, and there is only the stamp of Integreted Energy BV SPV, which has the same address as Almares Menagment BV, and which is also the subsidiary of Residence Corporate Services.

But what happened next?

We showed with these documents, that the connection is clear. In an office in the Netherlands, Klodian Zoto went and did not return as an Albanian citizen, but with a dutch company to sign a contract worth 128 million euros. In 2016, he founded the company Integreted Energy BV, and then received a concession of 128 million euros.

But why did we bring all these documents for Almares and Integreted Energy BV companies? We brought these documents, to show that Russian citizens are hiding behind the services provided by Klodian Zoto and related companies. Maybe it looks incredible, maybe someone will try to dismiss it. But the facts are facts.

According to the document below, which are extracts officially issued by dutch institutions, Almares Menagment BV, the co-director of Integreted Energy BV, has two directors, one of whom is Marc Lappat, whom we showed in the above documents as co-signatories.

So as the second director in the administration of the Albanian company, which has won the concession 128 million euros. But Almares Menagment BV, doesn?t just have this director. It is another co-director of this company, which is Alisa Jangildina, born in 1973 in the Union of Soviet Republics, according to the documents we are showing below.

But it is not just the Almares document, that shows that we are dealing with a russian citizen, in the management of these companies. We have also provided another document, which shows that in Residence Corporate Services, the people who run it are the same as Almares company.

So, we have discovered the scheme in three companies, Integreted Energy BV, Almares Menagment BV and Residence Corporate Services, which is the mother of Almares company, where appear again Alisa Jangildina name, and is co-director Marc Lappat, who has signed for Almares company about Albania, and the company that will build the incinerator Tirana.

So Almares Menagment BV is not just a dutch company, with a dutch citizen, or a foreign corporation, but a co-director is also a russian citizen, who co-directs this company with the second or co-director of Almares, and the other company chain that are used in the Netherlands to hide the real partners and traces of Klodian Zoto and his partners.

But apparently that has been impossible. Official documents, published in the official gazette and in the Chamber of Commerce reveal everything, from the founding of the company by Klodian Zoto to Russia, co-director of companies that co-manage the 128 million euro concession for the Sharra landfill and incinerator in Tirana.

CNA.al is closing here the second part of the investigation, where we have brought all the documents we had available. Also, yesterday, we published many documents, and tomorrow we will also bring some other additional materials, which are related to another chain of companies.

With the same names, which include Klodian Zoto, his partners in Tirana, the concession 128 million euros, but also with other businessmen, politicians and former politicians, who have their shares or family members in connection with Klodian Zoto and the 128 million euros scandal.

We will also publish other exclusive data, such as historical extracts and changes that have undergone companies to make it possible disappearing the traces. But, as we reported yesterday, ?the devil is hidden in the details?, they were able to hide something, but couldn?t destroy everything. Continued? / CNA.al
