Illegal money laundering scheme in Spain revealed. The Prosecutor’s Office of Tirana has completed the investigations and is charging an Albanian citizen and three foreigners.
It is about the Albanian citizen Jozefina Gjoni, and the three foreign citizens Saverio Ciampi, Claudio Cuchi and Manrico Erriu.
From the investigations carried out in connection with this matter, it has emerged that the persons involved are also under investigation by the Spanish authorities for economic crimes through various companies in Tenerife, Spain.
Referring to the act of accounting expertise, carried out for the benefit of the investigation, it was proven that these citizens have cooperated among themselves by creating companies in Albania, for the laundering of illegally obtained money in Spain, or even in other countries such as Italy or Switzerland , since the expert report showed that financial transactions were carried out between companies that have the same Albanian or foreign name.
“The investigation showed that through the creation of commercial companies as well as through the circulation of money in the bank, these citizens tried to clean the proceeds of the criminal offense, simulating the activity carried out by them as legal. It was proven that the companies in Albania, which served the defendants to commit the criminal offense provided for by Article 287 of the Criminal Code, were created after these citizens previously created other companies in Spain, for which they are under investigation for committing the criminal offense of “Fraud”.
This fact is proven not only by the dates of establishment of companies in Albania, but also by the fact that some of the companies established in Albania are daughter companies of foreign ones and bear the same name.
The defendants have intentionally created companies in Albania, investing the illegally obtained money in Spain, also deriving benefits from the illegal action done by them”, the official announcement states.
