Claudia Lala

Journalist Klodiana Lala stated that organized crime in Albania is not limited to money laundering, but has also expanded its influence to public tenders and state institutions.

Lala said that SPAK has gone through several phases during its activity. According to her, the institution has managed to deal significant blows to criminal groups.

She also mentioned some of SPAK's most well-known operations, emphasizing that the most visible results are related to the crackdown on structured criminal groups.

Lala said that an important part of SPAK's work has been the seizure of assets suspected of being linked to criminal activity, in significant amounts.

"The Pepa criminal group is probably among the strikes of one of the most dangerous criminal groups and the seizure of assets of this criminal group in significant values, in tens of millions of euros, I think it is a very important issue because it was a company and I have dealt with it on the show "Në Shënjestër", which had won dozens of public tenders. What does this mean? So, organized crime that launders money and extends its tentacles in public tenders, and on the other hand it was a criminal group that planned to take hostage the directors of a second-tier bank.

Imagine what a sophisticated grouping where the four brothers, one of whom unfortunately is no longer alive, but the other three were involved in organized crime, in cocaine trafficking, in money laundering and in extending their tentacles in tenders, from reconstruction to tenders in various municipalities of the country. So in this sense it was an important and essential issue according to me.

"You also had the crackdown on Ines Hajrulla's group in Vlora. Of course, there must be an opposing group like Llanaj and many other groups in that city, but for the first time SPAK went there and that naturally opened Pandora's box for mafia murders that have occurred in that city and then there could be arrests... other arrests ," she said in Kjo Javë.
