Another operation in Abu Dhabi, one of Dritan Gjika's associates arrested

A police operation between the Spanish Police, Europol, Interpol and the authorities of the United Arab Emirates has led to the arrest of one of the main leaders of international drug trafficking. 

According to what foreign media reports , this is one of Dritan Gjika's associates, who was also arrested a few weeks ago in Abu Dhabi for drug trafficking and laundering of 31 million dollars.

Gjika's associate, whose identity has not yet been revealed, personally coordinated contacts with cocaine suppliers, as well as the transportation, storage, extraction and distribution of the narcotic substance in Europe through a network operating from Ecuador, Spanish media reported.

He had a contract with Colombian suppliers to receive 4,000 kilograms of cocaine per month destined for the European market.

During Operation Pampa, which involved 800 agents, 40 people were arrested in Spain and Ecuador, and 62 searches were carried out, leading to the seizure of over 500,000 euros and 2,370,000 dollars in cash, weapons of war and 12 luxury cars. This operation was directly linked to the investigations involving the Dritan Gjika network.

The organization used a wide network of European ports to import drugs, including Amberg, Rotterdam, Algeciras, Hamburg, St. Petersburg, Durrës, Gioia Tauro and Constanta, where they had collaborators mainly linked to the Albanian mafia.

The Central Investigation Court No. 1 has requested his extradition to stand trial at the National Court. He will be extradited to Spain to stand trial along with other members of the organization.
