The Special Prosecutor's Office gave the claim for 5 of the accused who went to Syria and joined the Albanian fighters for jihad.
SPAK has asked for their sentence of 7 years in prison, but due to the shortened trial, 1/3 of the sentence is automatically reduced if they are found guilty.
In conclusion, SPAK requested the suspension of the prison sentence for the women and probation for a period of 5 years. The decision is expected to be issued in a few days by the GJKKO.
SPAK investigated jihadist women who were repatriated from Syrian camps to Albania for participating in a terrorist organization and participating in military activities in a foreign country.
The defendants in this trial left for Syria in 2013-2014, following their husbands who went to fight first alongside Al Nusra and then for ISIS.
