Fraud with Call-Center/ Hide 5.7 million euros, 9 years in prison for 8 Italians

Court of Tirana

At the request of the Prosecutor's Office, the Court of Tirana sentenced 8 Italian citizens to 9 years in prison. They are accused of hiding 5.7 million euros by operating in the Call-Center field.

In the meantime, measures have also been imposed on 15 companies which did not declare an amount of income of 5,799,010 euros.

Notice of the Prosecution:

The Prosecutor's Office at the Court of First Instance in Tirana completed the investigations for a group of Albanian and Italian citizens accused of the criminal offense of "Computer fraud" and "Concealment of income" provided for by articles 143/b and 180 of the Penal Code. At the end of the investigations of criminal proceedings no. 3230 of 2022, eight Italian citizens and 15 companies which did not declare an amount of income of 5,799,010 euros were requested by the Prosecutor's Office and sentenced by the court.

From the investigation of the prosecution, it was found that in the bank accounts of 15 entities with the field of operation 'Call Center', significant monetary values ??were transferred, which were then withdrawn as cash, hiding the final destination.

From the analysis of the investigative actions, it turned out that the administrators of the Albanian and foreign "Call Center" entities acted in violation of the law and circulated monetary values ??that were not reported as income to the tax authorities, thus avoiding the calculation and payment of tax obligations.

For this reason, from the investigations in cooperation with the Tax Investigation Sector in the General Directorate of Taxes, evidence was gathered and based on Article 331 of the Criminal Code and Law No. 9754 of 2007 "On the criminal liability of legal entities" the case was sent for trial for the criminal offenses of "Concealment of income" and "Cleaning of the proceeds of a criminal offense or criminal activity" provided by articles 180/3 and 287/2 of the Criminal Code against the defendants:
