She deceived clients and took money from them for fictitious actions, the Fier

The Fier Prosecutor's Office has closed the investigation and sent a lawyer to court, after she is accused of fraud. Lawyer Alma Bala has defrauded several people by taking a lot of money without opening any legal proceedings.

The investigation into the lawyer began after reports from various individuals. The investigation proved that lawyer Alma Bala, through lies, embezzled various amounts of money from various individuals, claiming that she needed this amount for representation as a lawyer, but in fact, no legal proceedings were opened by the defendant or the administrative or procedural actions claimed by her were carried out.

To make the claim more credible, in some cases, the lawyer submitted documents to her clients whose content was unrelated to the relevant issues.

In general, the people deceived by her did not live in Albania and had no information about the judicial or administrative procedures that the lawyer claimed to be pursuing on their behalf.
