Business Front to Mask Illegal Activities
F.K. had established a fruit and vegetable business in Albania, officially registered with the National Business Center (QKB). Authorities believe the business served as a cover for his fraudulent activities. Police reports indicate that the suspect planned to expand the business into other areas, potentially to further mask illicit financial operations.
Transactions Linked to a Belgian Credit Card
Investigations revealed that F.K. used a credit card registered in Belgium to execute business-related transactions. These transactions, flagged as suspicious, became the focus of the investigation. Evidence suggests that the suspect exploited the card to conduct unauthorized activities while attempting to maintain a legitimate business appearance.
Suspected Network of Accomplices
Police suspect that F.K. is part of a structured criminal group. A review of his mobile phone uncovered communications with other individuals, raising concerns about a broader network involved in the scheme. Investigators are currently working to identify potential accomplices and unravel the full extent of the operation.
This case underscores the growing sophistication of financial crimes and the importance of international cooperation in tackling such offenses. Albanian authorities continue to collaborate with their counterparts abroad to bring all responsible parties to justice.
