SPAK has developed a joint operation with the French authorities, which led to the crackdown on a drug trafficking group. The criminal group operated in the Lyon region and supplied sales groups in the Rhone, Ain, Savoie, and Haute-Savoie regions from an Albanian citizen in France.
The gang was led by an Albanian citizen in Albania. SPAK announces that the joint investigations between the two countries have made it possible to identify and prosecute 19 persons, Albanians and foreigners.
The French justice authorities have proceeded with the arrest of 16 Albanian and foreign citizens, the seizure of 20,000 euros and 3 vehicles. While in Albania, the security measure “arrest in prison” was given and executed by GJKKO for three people as involved.
The value of the seized narcotics exceeds the value of 1 million euros. Investigations continue with the administration of evidence regarding the implication of other persons suspected of being involved in this illegal criminal activity./abcnews.al
