Microcredit fraud/ Arben Meskuti is left in prison

The Special Court rejected Arben Meskuti's request to change the security measure "prison arrest".

Meskuti was left in a detention cell under suspicion of defrauding thousands of debtor citizens through microloans. He is the owner of several financial companies that set up pyramid schemes.

In December 2024, the Tirana Prosecution Office declared incompetence over the microcredit file, referring it to the Special Anti-Corruption Prosecution Office.

The criminal proceedings for the pyramid scheme of microcredit fraud began on February 25, 2020. Initially, a complaint was filed with the Tirana Prosecutor's Office by the Ministry of Justice.

During the investigation, the Prosecution discovered that the 5 lending companies received from a second-tier bank around 4 thousand loans considered bad and unpaid over the years, with a total amount of around 7.3 million euros. /CNA
