How is it possible that an individual with so many public accusations continues to act freely? Are the justice systems captured by money and political influence?
"We were paid by Gjergj Luca to massacre the owner of the Pamphlet Gjergj Zefi". This is what is written on an online page called "Traktet", referring to sources from the National Bureau of Investigation. On October 3, 2023, investigative journalist Gjergj Zefi was brutally attacked by members of a criminal group in Elbasan, known as "Çopja." This serious act of violence, which shocked public opinion at the time, has revealed a disturbing truth.
According to reliable sources of the investigation at "SPAK", it turns out that the group in question is suspected of being paid by Gjergj Luca, a name that is often mentioned in scandals and suspicious affairs in Albania.
Scary links between crime and business
Reliable sources from the investigation bodies indicate that "Çopja" is a well-structured criminal group, which not only operated in illegal activities, but also had strong financial and political support from Gjergj Luca.
The oligarch, known for his great influence in the country's economic and political circles, is accused of using his resources to protect dubious interests by cracking down on anyone who threatened them.
This case is living proof of how oligarchs in Albania have captured the state, using criminal groups as tools to maintain their power.
Gjergj Luca, with his wealth and powerful connections, seems to feel untouchable, while his victims, whether journalists, politicians, citizens or activists, remain defenseless in the face of this rotten system.
Gjergj Zefi is known for his bold denunciations of corruption and abuse of power. He had previously reported on Luca's suspicious activities linked to the "Çopja" group, which is believed to have angered the oligarch and his associates.
The attack on him is not simply an act of violence, but an attempt to silence a journalist who dared to tell the truth.
Gjergj Luca, one of the most talked-about names in oligarchic circles, has built his empire on a corrupt system where crime and politics walk hand in hand.
Sponsoring a criminal group like "Çopja" to silence critical voices is clear evidence of the frightening proportions that impunity has reached in Albania.
This oligarch, who is often presented as a "successful businessman," in fact represents everything that destroys the country's future, corruption, clientelism, and the use of violence to maintain privileges.
The attack on Gjergj Zefi and the oligarch's links to crime raise serious questions about the role of justice institutions and the state. How is it possible that an individual with so many public accusations continues to act freely? Are the justice systems captured by money and political influence?
The Journalists' Association and human rights organizations have called for this case not to be forgotten. They are calling for a thorough investigation and harsh punishment for all those behind this attack.
If the state fails to act, then Albania will continue to be hostage to oligarchs and organized crime.
Gjergj Luca is not just an octopus businessman; he is a symbol of the corrupt system that is destroying Albania.
The state's silence in the face of this scandal is a national shame and a major threat to democracy, says "Tracts"
