The Tirana police attacked a prostitution ring in Tirana this Thursday. Investigations and verifications revealed the scheme of practicing prostitution in the capital.
According to Tirana police, two 52-year-old Chinese citizens and another 38-year-old woman recruited other Chinese and Filipino citizens through social networks and accommodated them in a rented facility that they had adapted for prostitution.
At the moment when the recruited girls wanted to withdraw from this criminal activity, the two suspected perpetrators, through the photos published on the page “Escort Tirana”, exerted violence against them and pressured the families of the recruited girls.
Also, during the investigative actions, it was found that the 38-year-old Chinese citizen, by means of threats and pressuring her through photographs, took the amount of 15,000 euros from one of the exploited girls, after the latter asked to give up from this criminal activity.
Thus, as material evidence, 4,500 euros profited from this criminal activity, 1 laptop, 3 mobile devices, 2 passports, and 3 notebooks with notes were seized. As a result of this operation, the 52-year-old woman was arrested and the 38-year-old Chinese citizen was wanted, while 7 foreign citizens were prosecuted for prostitution. /abcnews.al/
