Journalist Xhevahir Zhabina has revealed details about how the mafia group targeted by SPAK and the Italian anti-mafia functioned in the recently conducted joint operation, where the leader of the group was Albanian Igli Kamberi.
Invited to "Euronews Albania", Zhabina stated that the investigation was mainly built by the Italian authorities and was then made available to the Albanian Prosecution.
"This is one of those investigations that was given to the Albanian Prosecution by the Italian anti-mafia. It is an Italian-style operation that has lasted for years to have greater success," he said.
According to the journalist, an amount of 680 thousand euros was seized in Muriqan during 2024, while it is suspected that the money was intended to be laundered in Albania.
"In 2024, an amount of 680 thousand euros was seized in Muriqan, which was coming to Albania to be laundered, and SPAK knows where this money is being laundered," said Zhabina.
He also indicated that the scheme used by the criminal group was to disguise the money as charitable aid to an association in the Lezha area.
"They came to Albania in the form of a charity for an association in the Lezha area, and this was investigated by the Italian prosecution," the journalist concluded.
