Prostitution center in Tirana, 7 foreign nationals prosecuted, 20-year-old

Police have raided a prostitution center in Tirana, in a daily rented space.

7 foreign nationals, 6 from Colombia and 1 from Panama, have been criminally prosecuted after being caught red-handed in an apartment.

A 20-year-old man has been arrested, while his Colombian accomplice, with whom he trafficked foreign girls to Albania, has also been declared wanted.

"As a result of a months-long investigation conducted with proactive methods, under the direction of the Prosecution, the Section for the Investigation of Illegal Trafficking organized and finalized the police operation codenamed "Crossline", as a result of which citizen KP, 20 years old, resident of Tirana, was arrested.  

Investigations suspect that citizen KP was collaborating with a Colombian citizen, still unidentified, to traffic foreign nationals, mainly from Colombia, into Albania to exploit them for prostitution.    

Following the actions, the materials were referred to the Prosecutor's Office where criminal proceedings were initiated against 7 foreign nationals (6 from Colombia and 1 from Panama), aged 27-35, who were caught red-handed in a daily rented apartment on "Gjon Muzaka" street, suspected of practicing prostitution, the police announced.
