Dritan Gjika, Lala, is caught in Dubai: Connection to the former president of

Dritan Gjika, one of the most talked-about names in organized crime with ties in Latin America, has been arrested in the United Arab Emirates. The news was confirmed by the well-known journalist Klodiana Lala on the show "The Unexposed" on MCN TV, where she revealed shocking details about his criminal activity.

According to Lala, Gjika is considered the head of an international organization that has trafficked tons of drugs and laundered millions of euros through sophisticated financial schemes. His main activity is suspected to have taken place in Ecuador and other Latin American countries, while in Albania he is suspected of money laundering in significant amounts.

"He is one of the most important people of drug trafficking in Ecuador. He operated with a very powerful criminal group and is suspected of laundering 32 million euros through the 'Hawala' scheme, where the money is not physically transferred, but left in one place and taken in another," Lala stated.

Gjika's connections in Latin America have been so strong that the Ecuadorian authorities have also announced a search for judges suspected of favoring him. According to the Ecuadorian Prosecutor's Office, the organization he led included exponents from Albania, Ecuador, Colombia and other countries.

Meanwhile, in Albania, the case has not received the attention it deserves. However, it is suspected that money was laundered through this network in Albanian territory as well. Lala said that after Dritan Rexhepi, Gjika may be the most important Albanian who has been declared internationally wanted with a "red card".

Gjika has also had criminal activity in Spain, while international authorities are expected to coordinate extradition and further investigations to unravel his entire network.
