The Merkaj brothers from Berat are the newest "subject" of the Special Structure against Corruption and Organized Crime.
For the three brothers Astrit, Endri and Klajdi Merkaj , SPAK has launched a property investigation.
In addition to them, their family members and social circle are also under investigation, as there are suspicions that they may have hidden the wealth in their name.

SPAK is checking the State Cadastre Agency, the Banks, the National Business Center and many other sources, to discover the assets of the brothers from Berat.

He also takes care to sell Chopje's cars and hide the ownership of their two villas in the "Mandarine Drive" complex.
