The Special Prosecution Office announced the indictment against a young man from Kosovo, while his two associates were previously extradited to the US at the height of an investigation led by the FBI.
For Shpend Sokoli, on charges of computer fraud, a sentence of 6 years in prison was requested, while what the FBI has investigated in the Balkans is related to the illegal online market known as RYDOX.
The American-Albanian investigation revealed that the Rydox network, active since 2016, was briefly deactivated in 2020 before being reactivated. Rydox is mentioned in the files that Top Channel has and advertised RaidForums, an online criminal forum that offered the sale of spam logs, the tools to send them, and their tutorials.
The FBI and SPAK determined that Rydox was an underground online marketplace. The indictment read against Shpend Sokoli in Albania stated that Rydox's database included information on 18,000 users, including virtual currency transactions.
The other two suspects, Ardit and Jetmir Kutleshi, were extradited from Kosovo to Albania, while the maintainer of this network, who insists that he knew nothing about the criminal intentions, was prosecuted in the Special Court with a summary trial.
The young man insists on his innocence and says he has nothing to do with this matter. Sokoli denies involvement with the two extradited to Pennsylvania, insisting that after he was contacted, his work was in the field of programming according to the requested services.
"I had no access to Rydox or to transactions," says Sokoli in the file, who, in addition to fraud, is also suspected of being part of a structured criminal group.
SPAK says that in this investigation, which was assisted by the FBI office based in Pittsburgh, it results that the platform has offered over 321,372 cybercrime products./ tch
