14 commercial companies, land and buildings/ 50 million euros of assets of 7
Prosecutor's Office of Tirana

The Prosecutor's Office of Tirana has seized 50 million euros of assets of seven people, previously convicted in Belgium for drug trafficking.

It is about the assets of citizens with the initials EA, MT, KB, DB, EB, VA, EB and some commercial entities proven to be in their administration.

They are charged with the criminal offense of 'Cleaning the proceeds of a criminal offense or criminal activity', provided by Article 287, second paragraph of the Criminal Code. The preliminary assessment shows that the value of the assets is 50 million euros.

From the conducted investigation, sufficient evidence was provided that creates the reasonable suspicion that EA citizens in cooperation with KB, EB etc. citizens have committed the criminal offense of "Cleaning the products of a criminal offense or criminal activity" carried out in cooperation, provided for by article 287, second paragraph of the Criminal Code and it is suspected that their wives are also involved in this scheme. The EA citizen was convicted in Belgium, where he also served the sentence within the framework of criminal groups. Also, from the evidence administered up to this stage of the investigation, there is a reasonable suspicion that this citizen has also committed the criminal offense of "Smuggling of licensed goods", provided for by Article 173 of the Criminal Code.

In the context of his illegal activity, citizen EA has established a number of commercial companies, with the aim of masking the performance of illegal activities on his part, with activities considered as legal. This citizen, through the creation of a number of companies, some of them under the administration of the UN or VA citizens, have created a real scheme for cleaning the products of the criminal offense.

From the conducted investigation, it was established that some fictitious actions were carried out, such as: sale - purchase of a vehicle, where on the same day the cancellation of the legal action was carried out, selling the vehicle at a very high price, obtaining loans from second-tier banks, at unjustified levels, where the bank itself surprisingly also becomes the guarantor of the amounts given, the creation of fictitious companies, which have been proven to have had a significant increase in the share capital despite not having carried out any financial activity, giving of loans in significant amounts, but not justifying the legal source of their creation, the creation of companies with joint quotas between EA and KB citizens, or between KB and EB, determining large quota values, but unpaid by the respective partners, the purchase of lots with considerable value, but the source of income is not legitimate, etc.

For these reasons, based on Article 274 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, the Prosecutor's Office requested:
