Want someone murdered?  Albanian hitmen are touting for business in London, apparently without any fear of the  law are we living in Chicago or a scene of the "Goodfellas"

News Desk

The London Daily News has discovered that professional Albanian assassins are "touting" for business in the capital claiming to be able to "take out" targets for as little as £5,000.

In an under cover investigation into criminal gangs operating in north London Albanians who fought in the KLA during the bloody Balkans conflict against Serbia, now have now established themselves as formidable figures in the London's underworld.  Experienced users of guns and knives the Albanians are one of the most able assassins in London.

The war in Kosovo fuelled the spread of the Albanian Mafia after numerous gangsters disguised as Kosovar ‘refugees’ found their way into European countries, especially the UK now over ten years since the troubles in the Balkans.

One leading Albanian gangster who spoke to the London Daily News said:

"We can use guns, we control the prostitutes in Soho and we are investing in London heavily.  We fear no one and the law cannot do anything to stop us."

Our reporter discovered that to have someone "taken out" according to the unwritten laws in London's criminal underworld, the going rate is around £5,000 with Albanian's using either guns or knives to eliminate the target.

The Albanian mafia is not a pyramid with one leader, rather an organisation with several bosses.

The ownership of the heroin European market, according to police sources from a dozen European countries is in the hands of 30 Albanian mafia families. Each of these families control a specific area of Kosovo which is the main transit point for all drugs.

The Drenica area, which goes through Prizren, Klin and Istok connects Montenegro and FYROM is controlled by the Drenica group whose main profit is drugs, weapons, stolen automobiles, white slavery, cigarettes and alcohol. This mafia is connected with the Albanian, Macedonian, Bulgarian and Czech mafia.

Most influential Albanian families at the moment are Naser Keljmendi, Ekrem Luka, and Redzep Selimi.

Recent FBI report shows that Albanian mafia overtook the Russian and Italian mafia in New York. Same went for several European cities, including  London, Berlin and Prague.

The new Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Paul Stephenson will have the added headache of dealing with ruthless well organised international criminal gangs.

great article ! i hope the truth on what kind of place Kosovo is will come to the surface of the main stream media. the result of the NATO intervention against Serbia is the foundation of a criminal state wich is the center for drug and human traffic all over Europe. the leading figures of Kosovo, Hashim Taci and Ramish Haradinaj are notorious criminals involved in the drug buisness. also, have a look on this : Members of Kosovo Liberation Army trained by Bin Laden WASHINGTON, May 4 (AFP) - Members of the Kosovo Liberation Army have been trained by Osama bin Laden, wanted by the United States for the deadly bombing of two US embassies in Africa, the Washington Times said Tuesday.

Thank you London Daily for exposing these criminal gangs that are plaguing our streets. I must commend you on this truly honest, objective and brave article! The Albanians are clearly a nation of criminals and terrorists. This is clearly evident in any city or town throughout Europe where the albanian are a majority. The heart of their criminal empire starts in Kosovo! An illegal and terrorist entity stolen from Serbia with the open assistance from various other international terrorist groups such as Al-Qaeda, not to mention NATO! This illegal entity is currently being run criminals gangsters and by former members of the KLA. A group that was on the CIA’s terrorist list until 1999, when it was conveniently taken off. As a result, Kosovo is a nation in chaos! The UNHCR estimates that over 250,000 Serbians and other ethnic minorities have been driven from their homes and are still living in refugee camps in Serbia and Montenegro! Over 150 Churches and monasteries destroyed. Most dating back over 600 years. None of which have been rebuilt. And the remaining Serbian population living in ghettos, surrounded by barbed wire and under constant UN protection. Despite this, they are still being attacked in their schools and in their homes, and are not able to access basic human rights like electricity or gas supplies in winter. The legacy left behind in Kosovo is a nation that is the largest suppliers of drugs to Europe. Not to mention various other criminal activities ranging from prostitution, kidnappings. To trafficking in human organs and arms through to Mafia and terrorist activities which are all too evident throughout the world. I would like to thank you again for this well researched article and for your brave and objective journalism. Something that is all too rare in our politically driven society. Please keep up the excellent work. 5 out of 5!

The biggest mistake we did in the UK was to allow the Albanians en masse to come in, have you not gone to Soho recently? Who runs the brothels and drugs in London? In the European press there is not a day when an Albanian is not involved in a murder or serious criminal action. SEND THEM TO TIRANA!
