Dritan Rexhepi, extradited from Turkey and known internationally as the "king of cocaine", was escorted today under strong security measures to the Court Against Organized Crime and Corruption, where he faced two hearings.
In the first session held behind closed doors, the GJKKO verified the security measure "arrest in prison", which was imposed in Rexhepi's absence.
And after the security measure was verified, Rexhepi faced the second session, which was public and related to the trial for the kidnapping and disappearance of Jan Prenga, an event that happened 4 years ago, where it is suspected that the crime was ordered in that time from the defendant's escape,
In this trial with seven defendants, Rexhepi is the only one arrested, as others are wanted and are being tried in absentia.
In the courtroom, the accused as the head of an Albanian cartel trafficking tons of cocaine from Latin America to Europe appeared in the same black sweatshirt and jeans in which he arrived in Rinas on Wednesday.
Before the court, Rexhepi confirmed the generalities and did not show any objection on the composition of the judging panel.
"I very much agree," he said when asked about it.
Then the session was interrupted due to the absence of the lawyer of one of the defendants and postponed to January 24.
Dritan Rexhepi, also known as Gramoz, was extradited to Albania more than a year after his arrest in Istanbul, Turkey, where he had fled after commuting a prison sentence received in Ecuador.
In addition to the current process in the Special Court, on his shoulders is a guilty sentence of 25 years in prison for a murder committed in 1998 and a sentence of 4 years in prison for "falsification of documents", for obtaining a biometric passport with a different identity , as required by justice.
Also, in 2010 he was sentenced to 16 years in prison in Italy, where he escaped, leaving 13 years and 6 months of his sentence unserved.
