According to preliminary investigations, the base served as a supply point for criminal groups with firearms. The operation was undertaken after information obtained through operational channels, as part of measures to crack down on illegal weapons possession and prevent serious crimes.
The seized weapons will be examined by experts from the Institute of Scientific Police to determine if they have been used in previous criminal incidents.
Investigations are ongoing to identify other individuals who may be part of this criminal network. The criminal case has been referred to the Durrës Prosecutor’s Office on charges of ” Production and illegal possession of weapons, explosive weapons and ammunition” and “Production and illegal possession of hunting and sports weapons.”
