The incinerator of Tirana, Lala: The investigations continue, they cleaned 20

Journalist Klodiana Lala spoke about the security measures against eight people, as part of SPAK's investigations into Tirana's incinerator. 

Invited to MCN, Lala said that the investigations show that about 20 million euros were sent offshore.

"The prosecutor's office has signed measures against several people, who the prosecutor's office says set up a criminal group and laundered 20 million euros.

So far, about 100 million euros have been received, while the incinerator does not exist. The prosecution says that Mirel Mërtiri and Klodian Zoto lead the criminal group and through his associates have laundered money by taking it offshore.

Ilir Dedja, has been investigated by foreign authorities. He is located in Switzerland where he lives with his family. It became known when the scandal broke out in Zimbabwe, the attempted incinerators there. Dedja is the guarantor of Ahmetaj's partner's rent in Switzerland.

The other persons are three foreign citizens, one Italian and the other two holders of Dutch passports.

There is Marc Lapat, administrator of Geogenix, and Michael Druijts, both with Dutch passports. Giuseppe Cafaglione, administrator of the Tirana incinerator, is wanted.

They are Denisa Tolkuçi, Dashamir Ymeraj and Endrit Habilaj, declared wanted.

According to the prosecutor's office, an amount of 20 million euros was transferred offshore through various companies.

But this file is just about money laundering, not about procedures.

So the investigation into the officials of the Municipality of Tirana, or other high officials, are continuing. If we go into the technicalities, the investigated companies are chains of companies ", said Lala.
