After extradition from Spain, Lulzim Berisha is placed in Durrës prison

After being extradited from Spain, the former leader of the Durrës Gang, Lulzim Berisha, has been placed in Durrës prison.

We recall that Berisha was extradited from Spain on March 18 at the request of SPAK. Lulzim Berisha is accused of the murder of Klodian Saliu.

Lulzim Berisha, who was initially sentenced to life imprisonment for participating in a criminal organization, murder, and illegal trafficking during the years 1998-2000, managed to have his sentence reduced from life imprisonment to 25 years in 2014, following a decision by the Supreme Court.

Two years later, the former leader of the Durrës gang was able to leave prison thanks to a decision by the Durrës Court of Appeal, which, through a calculation, decided that 3/4 of the sentence had been served and, assessing his positive behavior, pardoned the remaining 5 years of his sentence.

However, in December 2021, the Supreme Court overturned the Durrës Appeals Court decision, requiring him to return to prison to serve the remaining 5 years. For this reason, the Durrës Prosecution Office declared Lulzim Berisha wanted in January 2022 and he was arrested in Spain in December 2023. After returning to Albania, he has two court cases, to complete his previous sentence and to stand trial for the murder of Klodian Saliu in 2005.
