The Tirana Court has remanded in custody 5 of those arrested in connection with an operation by the Tirana Prosecution Office against several call centers suspected of defrauding European citizens of 50 million euros.
In the session to assess the security measures, the Court remanded citizens Eduart Dalla, Tedi Agastra, Mateo Hoxha, Xhoel Mekolli and Ledio Toçi in custody.
Meanwhile, for Aida Vokli, Ledio Toçi's wife, the court has imposed the measure "obligation to appear" and "ban on leaving the country".
Some of the people have not yet been arrested by the Police, while the Court imposed the security measure of imprisonment in absentia for Xhoni Hitaj and Marsel Lami, while for Ledio Cenaj the measure of "obligation to appear" and "prohibition to leave the country" has been imposed.
Earlier, the Tirana Prosecutor's Office, through an official announcement, also announced the scheme of how these call centers operated.
These people, in cooperation with each other, were divided into different groups according to languages (German, English, Italian) and aimed at certain international markets. Each group consisted of 6-8 agents and was supervised by the manager who monitored them. The work of the people who spoke Italian consisted of making phone calls to Italian citizens offering them the service of recovering money that they had lost in previous investments in 'online trading' and, if the people were interested, they then instructed them to open an account at "Coin Baze", with an initial deposit of 500 Euros.
It is further explained that the operators' task was only to convince clients to make the initial payment of 500 Euros and their monthly salary was around 800 Euros, part of which they received in cash and the rest in the bank.
Each of the employees had a username and operated under pseudonyms.
