SPAK operation, Lulzim Berisha is also part of the 'list'
Part of the long list of arrest warrants issued yesterday by GJKKO, are also 3 people who are in Spain. Among them is Lulzim Berisha, who was captured on December 14, 2023, after 3 years on the run. His arrest was finalized as a result of the exchange of information between the Albanian side and Spain's FAST agency. Considered as the former leader of the Durrës Gang, Lulzim Berisha has a long ordeal of court proceedings with Albanian justice. Specifically, in 2012 he was sentenced to life imprisonment by the Court of Durrës for several serious crimes, this sentence was overturned in July 2014 by the Supreme Court. The latter ultimately sentenced him to 25 years in prison, but only two years after this sentence he was released from prison, specifically in December 2016.
4 years after gaining freedom, Lulzim Berisha started another criminal process, where he was again declared wanted by justice. SPAK accuses him of participating in the murder of Klodian Saliu, Vajdin Lame and his friend Artan Arsi, events that took place in 2005. As if this were not enough, in 2021, the Supreme Court overturned the decision to release Lulzim Berisha in 2016 and requested his return to prison. This request, which is expected to be realized only after the completion of the process of his extradition to Albania.
