A 29-year-old citizen was arrested today in Fushë-Krujë, after laundering money from dubious sources, by lending it at interest, in his exchange and jewelry business.

The police operation codenamed "Mines" was carried out as a result of a 5-month investigation, using proactive methods, by the Money Laundering and Criminal Assets Investigation Section, in cooperation with the Tirana Prosecution Office.

During the search, 100,000 euros in cash were found in the business premises, which were being lent out against interest.
