Two criminal groups were hit by investigations by the Brescia Public Prosecutor's Office in Italy, as part of a large drug trafficking network that led to the arrest of 45 people, including 3 Albanians, and the prosecution of 87 others as suspects.
This group is suspected of trafficking around 2,000 kilograms of cocaine, 1,500 kilograms of hashish and 700 kilograms of marijuana.
The first criminal group, which operated particularly in the province of Brescia, is suspected of importing drugs directly from producing countries, specifically cocaine from Colombia, thanks to the mediation of a woman believed to be linked to individuals from the “Gulf clan”. And hashish from Morocco, which made up the second criminal group, was transited through Spain.
The long list of those arrested in the first group also included Shkëlzen Guzina (born 1990) and Gjon Prela (1985). In the second group, among those who ended up in handcuffs was Skerdi Bocoi (born 1976).
