Albanian gangs loyal to the 'Ndrangheta, the Italian Antimafia report 'deconstructs' the criminal activity
An Italian Antimafia report for 2021 on 'Organized Crime' also refers to Albanian criminal gangs operating in the neighboring country.
Referring to the Antimafia report, it is said that Albanian gangs "have been identified in a large part of the Italian territory. They sometimes operate in small groups and in some cases multi-ethnic to commit crimes against property. In other cases, the presence of structured and stable criminal organizations was established."
According to the report, the modus operandi of these gangs is similar to that of the "typical mafia". The connections between gang members are usually centered on family ties where in almost every case we are dealing with a gathering of compatriots.
Albanian gangs are more active in countries such as the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Great Britain and others.
"Albanian crime is mainly active in drug and weapons trafficking. It is also found in human trafficking and the exploitation of prostitution. In some cases it operates in functional agreements with other factions of other criminal groups. "Associations with a transnational connotation use connections with criminal gangs composed mainly of compatriots who operate mainly in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Spain, the United Kingdom, France, as well as in Central and South America and Albania ," the report states.
As for the position that Albanian gang members have in comparison to others, the report states that "normally, Albanians take care of the supply of drugs. It is then sold to organizations that manage the stores. Another element resulting from investigative evidence shows how, regardless of the level of structuring, internal Albanian organizations are confirmed in drug trafficking as the main international intermediaries. This is because of their indisputable reliability and success in this sector. Under this profile they are able to move large quantities of cocaine and heroin."
The report further assesses the role that Albanian gangs play in the activity of the most famous group of the "Ndrangheta".
“Nga deti vijnë ngarkesa të mëdha të marijuanës, vend prodhues i të cilës është Shqipëria. Si prodhues dhe bashkëpunues të besueshëm ata janë të lidhur me “Ndrangheta”, mafian puliane. Lidhje kanë edhe grupet nga Campania dhe Sicilia apo me matrica të tjera kriminale. Bandat kriminale shqiptare janë të përfshira edhe në menaxhimin dhe transportimin përmes detit të ngarkesave të mëdha të marijuanës, vend prodhues i të cilave është Shqipëria. Prandaj, ata hyjnë në biznes edhe si prodhues edhe si bashkëbisedues të besueshëm me 'Ndrangheta', mafian puliane, por edhe me mafien e Campania-s dhe sicilisë ose me matrica të tjera kriminale”, pohon raporti.
