event
As it is already known from the whole public opinion, financial fraud schemes with microcredits have affected a large number of citizens in our country. One of these victims is Pal Trashaj, from Lezha, who, in the conditions of depression, drank phototoxin in front of the doors of SPAK. The 63-year-old, who is known as a historian in his town, has for years denounced the ordeal with the loan received, which then multiplied over the years until the asset was blocked.
Yesterday, he arrived at the premises of SPAK as the only hope to find justice. He was not allowed to enter the interior for 2-3 hours and began to persistently seek a meeting with the leaders and then drank the poison he had on a letter he had in his hand at that moment.
Loan 76 thousand ALL that turned into 4.8 million ALL debt
According to the data coming from Lezha, it is known that Pal Trashaj had a remaining loan since 2008, in the amount of 76 thousand ALL. Pal Trashaj’s loan was bought by MCA, which demanded 4.8 million ALL, blocking everything for 5 years: the house, the land, the car and the salary where he worked. Trashaj demanded that SPAK take over the issue of the robbery of his property by bailiffs, for whom he had earlier filed a civil lawsuit in the Court of Lezha.
He claimed that he had repaid the loan and that the actions taken to seize his property were illegal. Pal Trashaj is one of the many victims of microcredits, but his file is not the subject of SPAK’s investigations.
Meanwhile, in 2015, Trashaj was also fined by the Tirana court after threatening the director of a second-level bank with messages. In May of this year, at the request of the Prosecutor’s Office,
The Court of Tirana has imposed 9 security measures, 5 “prison arrest” and 4 “house arrest” for administrators of financial entities and executors, under the charge of the criminal offense of ‘fraudulent and pyramid scheme’ after being involved in the microcredit fraud scheme . As an example of the scale of the microcredit scandal, the prosecution cites the case when Micro Credit Albania seized 14 real estates from a person for about 348,000 ALL in arrears.
According to the prosecution, the 5 companies, Micro Credit Albania, ADCA, SHP Zig, FS, FLASH, received from a second level bank 3999 loans considered bad and unpaid over the years with a total amount of 7.3 million euros. They used a coercive loan-taking scheme where, through theft, debtors who had old debts in banks were forced to take out loans even though they had no possibility of repayment, and their salaries, properties, or cars were blocked by enforcement agencies.
