2026-07-03 10:32:00, Aktualitet CNA

In his report to the Laws Committee on the activities of 2025, the head of SPAK, Klodjan Braho, focused on organized crime.

Braho said that referring to data from 2025, organized crime is appearing in more sophisticated forms.

The head of SPAK said that criminal groups are using clear division of roles and infiltrated communications, while adding that narcotics trafficking and laundering of the proceeds of crime remain among the main priorities of investigations.

Focusing on the risk profile, Braho stated that criminal groups constitute 54% of this category, narcotics trafficking 28.4% and laundering of the proceeds of crime 24.3%.

 

“ The 2025 data show that organized crime is emerging in more complex and sophisticated forms. Criminal groups no longer operate solely in the classic forms we have encountered before, but instead use clear separation of roles, infiltrated communications, fictitious business entities, formal transactions, and real estate investments. The 2025 investigations have shown that drug trafficking and laundering of the proceeds of crime remain top priorities.

In the risk profile, the structured criminal group constitutes 54% of this category, narcotics trafficking 28.4% and laundering of criminal proceeds 24.3%. In some cases, Albania is used as a transit, recruitment or laundering country for criminal proceeds. The main activity of the groups often extends outside the territory of Albania” , said Braho.
