Albanians arrested in Rotterdam home where firearms are located June 23, 2023
The police arrested five Albanians on Thursday in a house on Paradijslaan in Rotterdam-Crooswijk during a so-called "undermining action".
Officers saw a car driving on Thursday that caught their eye. It stopped at a house on Paradijslaan. As the occupants enter the home, officers check the residential address and license plate number within the police systems. This shows that there may be a person present in the house who is still under arrest to be arrested.
When the police then enter the house, they find five men and three firearms. The man who was spotted is not present in the house. The five men aged 26, 32, 34 (2x) and 36 from Albania have been arrested.
During the raid, three firearms, a silencer, money, several data carriers, a luxury watch, jewelery and a vehicle were seized.

Imported 6 tons of cocaine from the Netherlands to Milan, who is Edmond Dodaj, former member of the Special Forces! He was arrested after 10 years on the run in Laç
Editorial August 26, 16:50 | Update: August 26, 5:37 p.m
Edmond Doda, arrested two days ago in Laç, on (August 24), wanted by the Italian authorities after being accused of being a participant in a criminal organization composed of other Albanians, had imported 6 tons of cocaine from the Netherlands to Milan .
Dodaj had imported cocaine from the Netherlands through his gang from the port of Rotterdam, where according to the analysis of the Italian media Corriere Della Sera, the Albanian criminals may have even bribed the workers to avoid controls on the containers from South America.
Edmond Dodaj worked for the Special Forces in Albania, when the Minister of the Interior was Saimir Tahiri. Dodaj is young in age, but he belongs to the "old school" of Albanian gangs, who have long climbed into positions, transforming from "unqualified", into privileged intermediaries, both from the "Ndrangheta" mafia organization, and from South America.
The 42-year-old, who had been wanted for 10 years, was arrested in the city of Laçi with the intention of extradition to Italy after being declared an international wanted by Interpol Rome. The Milan court had issued an international arrest warrant against him, for the criminal offense "Criminal group in the field of drug trafficking", provided by the Italian Criminal Code.
Local media are interested in whether Dodaj will ever speak when he is tried in Italy? Will he cooperate to reveal the network of collaborators, opponents to bury, or protectors who, according to Corriere, could be high officials or politicians.

Drugs, the "turn over" gang between Italy and Albania: 22 arrests, there is also the brother of one of the cousins ??killed in 2016 by Andrea Camurani Prominent figures of the Albanian "mafia" involved families in their country of origin to have fresh workers to put to work, in shifts of three months at a time
The Carabinieri who during the investigations observed the movements and activities of the gang specialized in dealing large quantities of drugs between Varesotto and Milanese were amazed at the almost workaholic ability of the affiliates to take, process, package and sell the doses. Then they understood : they took turns . And when it came time to sum up, that is, after having gathered the elements to make the arrests through the coordination of the Anti-Mafia Prosecutor's Office (DDA) of Milan, it was no coincidence that the entire operation was called "turn over".
Twenty-two arrests, of which 20 in prison and 2 under house arrest, many of them prominent figures of the Albanian "underworld" who also involved families in their country of origin to have fresh workers to employ in the drug dealing centers, but also in all the logistical phases of traffic in various provinces of Northern Italy; a vast area where at dawn on Wednesday the Carabinieri of the operational and mobile radio unit of Busto Arsizio went to ring the doorbells of the suspects to have them handcuffed: V arese, Milan, Lecco, Bergamo and Novara, with over 80 soldiers employed and canine units.
The investigative activity started from the arrest in flagrante delicto of an Albanian citizen found in possession of 110 doses of cocaine, for a total weight of almost one ounce, and approximately 12 thousand euros in cash, an arrest carried out by the company's soldiers of Busto Arsizio in June 2020. The subsequent investigative activities developed both through traditional investigations - confidences and stakeouts - and with "technical" findings which made it possible to reconstruct the dense network of pushers active between the lower Varesotto and the hinterland Milanese.
"The depth of the criminal group is also highlighted by the meticulous internal organisation, with associates in charge of logistical support in favor of the pushers coming from Albania, the supply and transport of drugs and the packaging of the doses", explain the carabinieri, who have reconstructed also the duration of the work "shift" of the family members who remained in Italy for approximately three months before returning to the Land of the Eagles.
The investigations already during the investigative phase had borne the hoped-for results: 6 red-handed arrests, and more than a quintal of drugs seized including coca, hashish and heroin which would have brought in approximately 3 million euros on the market (in addition to 453,000 euros in cash seized).
One of those arrested on Wednesday is the brother of one of the victims of the Canegrate shooting who left two bodies on the ground in November 2016 during a feud between rival gangs for control of the territory.
This week a man who was on the run for nearly 20 years has been arrested in Alicante, the leader of a criminal organisation was wanted for a double murder.
The detainee, notorious for leading a criminal syndicate linked to dozens of murders since 1998, has finally been caught. This individual’s criminal activities began in the early ’90s, with his organisation named after Durres, a key city in Albania, a name which symbolised its expansive influence.

i have never heard albanian clans moving so much cocaine at one time not even Kompania Bello, it was usually serbian/montenegrins to move in a similar scale
The Spanish and Dutch police have arrested five suspects who are said to be part of a criminal organization involved in large-scale cocaine trafficking. Three suspects have been arrested in Spain, two in the Netherlands. The five are linked to the seizure of more than 2,300 kilos of cocaine in Spain. This concerns drug seizures in the port of Bilbao, in 2020, and in Algeciras, in 2021 and 2022.
In November 2022, arrest teams conducted four raids in the provinces of Madrid and Alicante and two in Amsterdam. A total of five suspects were arrested: three in Spain and two in the Netherlands. The arrested men are suspected of large-scale drug trafficking, money laundering, participation in a criminal organization and the import of 2,348 kilos of cocaine into Spain.
Albanian leader Spanish police also report that North American authorities have previously arrested a prominent Albanian drug trafficker who was living in the United States. This Albanian is accused of heading an extensive drug network that distributed cocaine in more than fifteen countries, including Spain. The investigative services also link him to plans to build an 'underwater drone' to transport large shipments of cocaine between South America and Europe. This investigation in the US coincides with the Spanish investigation into the 1,100 kilos of cocaine intercepted at the port of Bilbao in 2020.
In addition to the Spanish police and the Guardia Civil, the Dutch police and the American DEA are also involved in the “Bandi-Hammer” investigation.

Albanian drug lord to be deported as ‘threat to public safety’ outweighs his human rights Judges ruled returning Neritan Kolludra to his country would not impact his family life as much as ‘the serious risk of him reoffending’
A convicted firearms supplier is facing more time behind bars after phone evidence gathered following his arrest showed he had also peddled drugs. 24-year-old Albanian national Klejdi Kazani (photo above) was jailed for seven years in May 2022 after he was caught with a self-loading pistol and ammunition while he drove on the M1 in Hertfordshire in August 2021.

Crackdown on Albanian crime syndicate results in 17 arrests Tuesday 4 June 2024 By The Brussels Times with Belga
Confiscated cocaine. Credit: Belga/ Nicolas Maeterlinck Seventeen arrests have been made across Europe, including Belgium, under a large-scale drug investigation targeting an Albanian crime syndicate.
Tuesday’s operation centred on 12 raids in Belgium - in Antwerp, Schoten, and Saint-Nicolas - conducted by the federal judicial police, in coordination with local law enforcers from Antwerp. Additional raids were carried out in Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, and Austria.
Albanian kingpin, 39, who smuggled millions of pounds of cocaine into Britain could be freed from prison early in transfer deal to tackle overcrowding crisis
In his prime, John Alite at one time was the baddest Albanian mobster in NYC. Before he turned into a Rat of course.
Also the best dressed and most physically conditioned guy on the street with the best tan.
I know he is not admired on these boards but you must admit there was a time that he was respected by many.
I honestly can't believe he is actually gaining clout among Albanians. The guy thought he was Italian all his life until he turned rat and then all of the sudden he starts acting like he's super Albanian.
