Dismantling the "Matrix", the expert: It was used by hired killers,

Europol announced today the dismantling of the encrypted application "Matrix", which was widely used by organized criminal groups for their illegal activities.

Criminalistics expert Ervin Karamuço told Euronws Albania that MATRIX was a service created by crime figures and was first discovered by Dutch authorities on the phone of a criminal convicted of the sniper murder of a Dutch journalist in 2021.


Karamuço said that 2.3 million messages and servers have been found and it is known that in 33 languages ​​decoded during the investigation it is confirmed that it was used by Albanian criminal groups, mainly by paid killers who have declared it themselves not only in SPAK but also in other prosecutions.

"The hired killers used it a lot because there they talked about all the technicalities, how the execution should be done, the killing methods, the meeting points and every element and detail about the killing order ," Karamuço said.


"Of course, it will take time to divide the folders for the respective states. By breaking the MATRIX, messages related to serious crimes, such as international drug trafficking, arms trafficking and money laundering, will be revealed. The breaking of the MATRIX will cause another earthquake because there will be information that will shock many people because we will talk about terrible events that happened in Albania, about how people were killed, about how people disappeared or how they were maimed before they disappeared ", said Karamuço.

Karamuço added that the MATRIX service was purchased with cryptocurrencies because the user was not identified that way.
