Maître Nathalie Gallant is one of the most renowned lawyers in Belgium. She defends Eridan Munoz Guerrero, the big "fish" in the "SKY EÇ - ENCRO" trial, a 51-year-old businessman from Vlora, accused of international cocaine trafficking. In an interview for "Moustique & La Libre" she talks about the trial with 128 defendants, money laundering in Tirana and connections with politics in Albania.
She was also asked about the seizure of a hotel or a boat in Albania, calling them seizures far from the billions of euros in Tirana.
"This trial is somewhat disproportionate from the means used, from the number of defendants. This "Encro" test seems like we should set an example. Whereas, even if we are talking about tens of kilograms of cocaine, or sometimes even hundreds of kilograms. Even if the merchandise itself is worth tens of millions, those on trial here are not billionaires. Away from there. Just look at the federal prosecutor's forfeiture requests. A million euros confiscated as a money laundering object? "Every month I find myself in court for "Belgian-Belgian" financial nonsense cases, where we have money laundering for much larger amounts", said the lawyer.
Speaking about the next trial on April 8, she says that there will also be talk about another criminal organization in Albania, but whose connections go to high levels of politics.
"It will include another Albanian criminal organization, which has some overlap with "Encro", since one or the other is specifically accused in both processes. If only there, we still seem to have connections at much higher levels in terms of political contacts in Albania and the reinvestment of possible patrimonial benefits from illegal activities", said the lawyer.
