The Chief of the Tirana District Police, Bernard Caushaj, announced the
arrest of two people during a police operation code named “Cezar 1”,
which also brought to the seizing of a 4 million EUR asset.
Shpetim Kadana, 35, and Vasil Bajraktari, 44, were arrested on money laundering charges and the police seized two luxury hotels, business premises, residential apartments and land.
Shpetim Kadana has allegedly been a member of a criminal organization that dealt cocaine and heroin distribution from Netherlands and Belgium to Italy and Greece.
Kadana was arrested three years ago in Rome with 20 kg of cocaine, three stolen handguns and ammunition.
Vasil Bajraktari was sentenced by the Turin Court with eight years to prison for exploiting prostitution in aggravating circumstances.
