Europol has added another Albanian to the list of most wanted persons.

58-year-old Haredin Fejzulla has been declared wanted at the request of the Belgian federal police.

It is suspected that he has earned millions from the drug trade in Belgium and this is also the reason why Europol added him to the "Most Wanted" list in Europe.

Haredin Fejzulla was born in Albania, but lived in Belgium with his family for a long time.

For the first time, the Albanian fell into the hands of the police on August 29, 2013, when he was stopped by car during a routine check.

The 58-year-old was in the company of 4 other Albanians, citizens Leonard Z., his faithful man Fejzulla and two friends.

The authorities seized 108 grams of cannabis and since then the Albanians have been kept under observation.

Investigations and wiretapping revealed that they were part of a gang that planted dozens of illegal cannabis plantations in Brussels and on the outskirts of the capital between 2013 and 2019.

The police specifically found 22 plantations, which were set up in rented villas.

His entire family was involved in illegal activity. His 31-year-old son was sentenced to 3 years in prison as a logistics assistant and plantation guard.

Fejzulla himself has been on the run since September 22, 2014 and has not been seen by the Belgian authorities since then.

He is suspected of hiding using pseudonyms or Greek names such as "Spiros", "Robotis Postolis" or "Vasileios Samaras".

The Brussels court has sentenced him three times in absentia for drug trafficking and as the leader of a criminal organization. Now he has to serve a total of 18 years in prison, while 1,365,000 euros have been confiscated.
