Daily Mail investigation: The shocking story of the Briton in the service of an
Ruben Saraiva

How a quiet schoolboy from Berkshire became a ruthless killer for an Albanian crime family is the shocking story revealed by journalist Tom Kelly, who has interviewed the so-called " Home Counties killer " from prison after he was sentenced to life imprisonment for an assassination linked to a £1m feud.

On a spring lunchtime in 2023, a man dressed as a courier entered a five-star hotel in an Albanian coastal resort, greeted the owner who was drinking coffee, and shot him six times at very close range with a Soviet-made automatic pistol.

The cold-blooded execution, caught on security cameras, was the seventh murder in a three-decade-long feud between two families in the Balkans.

According to Albanian custom codified in the 15th-century Kanun, a family must avenge the murder of a relative by killing a male from the perpetrator's family, creating an endless cycle of blood feud.

But for the first time, this assassination was directed by a British-led operation.

The alleged perpetrator, Ruben Saraiva, who grew up in Britain, was allegedly helped by a group of four people from the United Kingdom, including a young mother from Bristol.

The alleged mastermind of the murder is a member of a British-based Albanian family who believed that victim Ardian Nikulaj had killed a relative of theirs 26 years earlier.
This followed another murder in Nikulaj's family after a dispute over a £15 petrol bill in 1997 sparked the feud.

The cost of the operation increased significantly, while Saraiva and his associates allegedly benefited from up to £1 million, funded by other unidentified individuals in Britain.

Prosecutors say the British group was chosen because the victim would not be suspicious of foreign tourists.
Saraiva stood for days on end on a palace staircase while his accomplices stayed at the victim's hotel, posing as tourists and spying on him and his family.

After the assassination, he fled on a motorbike, while the victim's wife got out to find her husband dead. This week, Saraiva was sentenced to life in prison without the right to parole after being found guilty of premeditated murder.

In an interview from prison in Tirana, he complained about the conditions, saying he is held in solitary confinement for 23 hours a day and that his rights have been violated.

However, prison sources say he is being held in high security after information emerged that the people who financed the murder had placed a £500,000 reward for his elimination.

Despite this, Saraiva continues to claim innocence, saying he had gone to Albania for "vacation."

He is the son of Portuguese parents and grew up in Britain, where he had an ordinary childhood and was known as a quiet and well-mannered boy.

However, as a teenager he became involved in drug crimes and later in a stabbing, for which he was sentenced to prison.
 
Family members believe that it was in prison that he became involved with the Albanian criminal world.

After his release, he was deported to Portugal, but later returned to Britain and then traveled to Albania in 2023.

He was met at the airport by Edmond Haxhia, suspected of being the mastermind of the assassination. Before the assassination, Saraiva stayed in a village near Shëngjin and was seen conducting numerous surveillance near the victim's hotel.

He used a motorbike purchased in Tirana and was filmed waiting for hours on camera. On the day of the assassination, he entered the hotel and shot the victim six times before speeding away.

He then fled to Greece and later to Morocco, where he was arrested and extradited to Albania. Meanwhile, suspected accomplices in Britain have been arrested and are fighting extradition.
 
The feud between the families continues, with more victims after Nikulaj's murder.

The victim's family members live in constant fear, while experts warn of the risk of a continuing cycle of violence. " It's a never-ending story, " they say./ DailyMail
