The Special Prosecution Office has discovered a bank account in the city of Beijing which was used to transfer funds from Albania to China.
According to the Special Prosecution Office, this account functioned as a representative office on behalf of "Bankers Petroleum Albania" Ltd.
Data collected by SPAK shows that this representative office in Beijing serves mainly as a cover to withdraw funds from Albania without being taxed, recording these as company expenses and artificially inflating the accounting statements.
According to journalist Edison Vatnikaj, the purpose of the transfer does not have any real financial or operational plan to justify the transferred value, SPAK says.
Likewise, from the receipt of computer data seized by SPAK, a series of similar requests for funds and other transfers with the same characteristics, which follow the same practice, lack of transparency, insufficient documentation and suspicious financial purposes, have been identified.
SPAK says that these elements reinforce suspicions that we are dealing with a systematic scheme to shift capital abroad, bypassing tax and regulatory obligations in Albania.
The investigation by the Special Prosecution Office shows that the company "Bankers" has been losing money for 20 years in a row, while there is evidence that its expenses have been fictitiously increased, in order to incur losses and not pay profit tax to the state.
On the other hand, the company "Bankers" has benefited from VAT reimbursement through suspected fraudulent schemes, also assisted by other individuals and companies, with various activities in mind.
This investigation, which has been ongoing for a long time, reports that the company and its employees are suspected of having falsified documents and carried out financial operations of various natures:
- with various operators and individuals both inside and outside Albania;
- through fraudulent schemes with financial audits;
- legal consultancy firm;
- foreign companies;
- creation of fictitious companies;
- abuse of land rents, artificially increasing the value of rents through third parties used as intermediaries with landowners, carrying out fictitious transactions, etc. / Ora News
