The Prosecutor's Office of Tirana has announced that the file on the microcredit scandal, which has caused great financial and recently health damage to thousands of Albanian citizens, will be transferred to the SPAK Special Prosecutor's Office. This development comes after suspicions, based on evidence, that the microcredit gang operated within a structured criminal group.
The investigations have revealed that the financial companies "Micro Credit Albania" (MCA) and "Final" are involved in a fraud scheme aimed at extorting citizens. According to the Prosecutor's Office, these companies, together with some enforcement companies and other helpers, have created a mafia system that pressures and threatens borrowers, causing panic and great financial damage.
IUTE Credit and its connections with "Final"
IUTE Credit, registered in Albania in 2014, had an important role in this scandal. It has illegally sold bad loans to "Final", which, contrary to what has been presented, has been wholly owned by IUTE Credit for a considerable period.
On April 17, 2018, the partners of "Final" sell all their shares to the company "Iute Albania", for a figure of 192 million new ALL. From this moment, "Final" has become the property of "Iute Albania". Just one year later, in May 2019, "Iute Albania" sells all the shares of "Final" to Arben Maksut, the mobster recently arrested for the microcredit scandal, for a figure of 100 million new ALL. Thus, within one year, "Iute Albania" buys and sells the "Final" company, leaving with a loss of 92 million new ALL.
Acting as the owner of "Final", IUTE Credit has used this company to sell bad loans, thus doubling the interest for citizens. Investigation reports show that the companies "IUTE" and "Final" have shared certain responsibilities and roles within their fraudulent scheme.
Furthermore, there have been numerous complaints about the criminal interest rates that IUTE Credit applies, reaching up to 800%. These mafia actions have brought serious consequences for some individuals. Many citizens have lost everything, becoming dependent on these institutions that have turned into the most dangerous 'usurers', so much so that even criminal gangs have begun to envy them.
With the transfer of this file to SPAK, the time has come for a deep investigation and the confrontation of this structured criminal group with the law. SPAK must act urgently to bring to justice this band of thieves, which is destroying the lives of thousands of Albanian citizens. Finally, it is time for the abusive practices of IUTE Credit and its related companies to end, and for those responsible to face the consequences of their illegal actions. / Pamphlet
