NEW RULES/ Albanian gangs, like chameleons, find ways to traffic immigrants!

Albanian "gangsters" are always one step ahead as they smuggle immigrants into Great Britain. This is after Prime Minister Rishi Sunak vowed to deport an increased number of illegal Albanian immigrants. It revealed that a third of the 33,029 migrants who crossed the Channel between January and September last year were Albanian.

"I will work with the Albanians to establish a new agreement for people coming from Albania illegally, we will be able to get them safely back to Albania. We are returning illegal immigrants from Albania and the number will increase during the year", Sunak said earlier.

In recent years the government has sought to target criminals who control people smuggling routes from Albania to the UK.

However, a gang expert told The Sun that the crime bosses behind the trade are unlikely to be bothered by Sunak's strong words.

He said: "Smugglers are always ahead of the government. They will change and adapt, but they will continue to bring immigrants into our country."

He explained how gangs have been trafficking Albanians to Great Britain since the late 90s. "The use of small boats across the Channel is being phased out, because it is dangerous," he said.

Identifying the two main routes used by the gangs, he said: "Gang bosses recruit corrupt truck drivers in Belgium and France."

"Then they bribe him to transport people by truck. When the truck arrives in the UK, the illegals let them loose in car parks. Then the relatives come and take them", he added. The source said gangs pay around £18,000 per person and the second route involves using false documentation.

The people who lead the gangs have Albanians in the EU with the ability to create fake, fully biometric passports. They can also create fake driver's licenses. Gangs pay between £2,000 and £3,000 for fake passports. "Once they get one of these, they just fly to London as tourists and they're here," he said.

He described the trade as very profitable, adding: "It's a multi-million dollar business."

Notifications on Tik-Tok

The source explained how gangs have embraced social media, advertising their services on platforms such as TikTok. Last month, a sales push by Albanian people smugglers on the platform led to the biggest rush of crossings across the Channel in months. One day, in particular, 442 immigrants were seen arriving in ten boats.

Në një reklamë në "Tiktok" shkruhet: “Ata deportojnë 50, por ne do të dërgojmë 500”. Në një tjetër ata mburren: “Askush nuk do të t’ju kthejë”.

“Do t’ju mbajne vetëm një javë në qendrën e paraburgimit. Ne kemi një super çmim prej 4500 sterlinash. Pagesa në mbërritje“, thuhet më tej në njoftim.

Eksperti tha se komentet e fundit të Sunak për deportimin e shqiptarëve ishin raportuar gjerësisht në vend.

Ai tha: “Në Shqipëri ndjesia është se po i veçojnë padrejtësisht. Ne e dimë se problemi i trafikimit të njerëzve në Mbretërinë e Bashkuar përfshin rreth 11 vende të tjera, si Iraku dhe Afganistani. Nuk janë vetëm shqiptarët që mbërrijnë ilegalisht në Britaninë e Madhe”.

RREGULLAT E REJA

Burimi tha gjithashtu për The Sun se kontrabandistët e njerëzve vepronin veçmas nga bandat shqiptare që kanë marrë kontrollin e tregtisë së drogës në Mbretërinë e Bashkuar gjatë 20 viteve të fundit.

Vitin e kaluar, Agjencia Kombëtare e Krimit (NCA) shkatërroi një grup trafikantësh shqiptarësh të lidhur me një berber në Londrën veriore.

Hetimi i NCA zbuloi se Gul Ëali Jabarkhel, 33 vjeç, nga Crickleëood, përdori berberin e tij në Colindale aty pranë si një front për të kryer krimin e organizuar të imigracionit. Ai u kap duke tentuar të rekrutonte shoferë kamionësh për të sjellë emigrantë në Mbretërinë e Bashkuar.

Në shtator 2020 Jabarkhel – i cili pretendonte se kishte lidhje me kriminelët shqiptarë jashtë vendit – i ofroi një shoferi 2500 £ për çdo person.

He was one of four Londoners convicted for their roles in the criminal enterprise after a six-week trial at Kingston Crown Court.

Jabarkhel was jailed for 10 years, Baz Mohammed Jabarkhil for five years, Rehan Murudkar for two years and three months and Murudkar Rafique for three and a half years.
