Assisting in illegal border crossing/ 18-year-old Syrian arrested

Successive operations by the Border Police continue to prevent and crack down on attempts to provide assistance for illegal border crossing.

The police operation codenamed "Valley 2" is being finalized, to crack down on the criminal activity of providing assistance for illegal border crossing, in return for payment. 1 Syrian citizen is arrested and handcuffed. This citizen was helping immigrants from Third Countries to illegally cross the green border with Greece, with the aim of crossing to Montenegro and then to EU countries.

The Syrian citizen was caught red-handed during the night, in the village of Vidohova, accompanying 6 Egyptian and Syrian citizens, 4 of whom were minors.

From the in-depth investigations conducted for several months, it results that this citizen has committed this criminal activity several times before, but the immigrants were caught by the police services, in an attempt to cross towards Montenegro.

As a result of this operation, the Syrian citizen was arrested in flagrante delicto:

MH, 18 years old, for the criminal offense of "Aid for illegal border crossing".

Investigations suspect that this citizen, in collaboration with other Syrian citizens, was helping immigrants from Third Countries, in return for payment, to cross illegally into Albania, through the land border with Greece.

Investigations are ongoing to fully document this criminal activity, as well as to identify and apprehend other citizens involved.

The procedural materials were passed to the Prosecutor's Office at the First Instance Court of General Jurisdiction in Korça, for further action. /CNA
