There was a network in Finland and it was run from Albania, how did the drug

SPAK, in cooperation with Finnish authorities, has cracked down on a criminal group that was involved in international drug trafficking.

SPAK head Altin Dumani also explained how this criminal group operated. Dumani said that the group's leaders took refuge in Albania and directed drug trafficking.

The criminal group had a network in Finland and periodically sent representatives from Albania to go to the bases and start selling narcotics.

"The activity extends over years. Secondly, the organizers or creators of the group preferred to stay in Albania and from here they organized criminal activity. Today the court has issued 11 security measures, all of them are Albanian citizens, 10 were in Albania, one was not. There are 54 people prosecuted, most of them convicted in Finland. In Finland there are also Finnish citizens, not only Albanians. Other nationalities too. What impressed us as SPAK is that in our investigations it is the first time that we see criminal groups that also focus on synthetic drugs. So far we have seen that mainly Albanian groups are after cocaine, heroin or marijuana and cannabis. The quantities are large. We have also seized ecstasy. We all know the risk that these synthetic drugs pose to the health of the consumer. This criminal group had a network of their own in Finland and periodically sent their representatives from Albania who went to the designated bases and started selling narcotics ," he said. Smoke.
