A 19-year-old Turk, declared wanted internationally by Interpol Tirana for attempted murder and illegal weapons possession, has been arrested in Greece.
None found
According to sources, the young man is suspected of being the perpetrator of the shooting of 36-year-old Turk Halil Uçar, an incident that occurred on March 9 of this year at a bar in the Sauk area of Tirana.
How the Shooting Happened in Sauk
According to information, the suspected perpetrator and the victim were at different tables and on different floors of the venue.
After having dinner on the first floor, the 19-year-old is suspected of moving to the second floor, where he fired shots in the direction of Halil Uçar, wounding him with a bullet in the shoulder.
Following the shots, the suspected perpetrator fled the scene quickly.
He Was Arrested During a Police Check in Greece
The 19-year-old was arrested in Greece along with two other Turkish nationals, aged 21 and 22, during a police check on the Kalamata-Pylos road axis.
According to Greek authorities, the operation was carried out by officers of the Police Prevention and Intervention Unit in Messenia, while the three young men were arrested for criminal offenses related to violations of legislation on narcotics, foreigners, and forgery.
During the inspection of the vehicle they were traveling in, the police found and confiscated 14.7 grams of marijuana, as well as a small amount of cocaine, which they are suspected of possessing jointly.
Additionally, the 19-year-old and the 22-year-old presented documents with questionable authenticity. The documents were confiscated by the police, and verification revealed that both were staying illegally in Greece.
Declared Wanted Internationally by Interpol Tirana
During verifications, Greek authorities determined that the 19-year-old had been declared wanted internationally with a Red Notice from Interpol, at the request of Albanian authorities.
He is accused of attempted murder and criminal offenses related to the illegal possession and use of firearms, in connection with the incident in Sauk.
During the police operation, four cell phones were also confiscated, as well as identity cards and driving licenses issued by Bulgarian authorities.
