(ANSA) - ROME, 11 APR - From data shared with Italian judicial authorities, "it emerges how Albanian groups collaborate with Italian clans or mafias," Altin Dumani reports to La Repubblica, head of Spak, Albania's special prosecution office against organized crime and corruption. Investigations into Albanian clans in Italy "mainly concern drug trafficking, money laundering, human trafficking, illegal immigration and computer fraud," the magistrate explains. "These criminal activities are suspected to have been carried out in several cities such as Rome, Milan, Florence, Venice, Ancona, Turin, Bari, Brescia, Bergamo, Pordenone, Pisa and Lecce." Proceeds are reinvested in multiple sectors, such as "construction," and more recently "cryptocurrencies." Among those sanctioned for corruption or abuse of office in Albania were "a former interior minister" as well as "magistrates" and "mayors," among others. Spak, Dumani reports, "currently has arrested a former minister and a deputy of the Assembly of Albania." (ANSA).
