Amant Josifi, the former advisor of Olta Xhaçka, has been arrested in Dubai. Josifi was wanted internationally by the Spanish authorities for fraud through Call Centers. 

We recall that on November 8 and 9, 2022, in cooperation with Eurojust and Europol, the Special Structure Against Organized Crime and Corruption (GJKKO) raided 6 call centers in Albania linked to the "Milton Group" and arrested 4 suspects. 

Meanwhile, the investigations showed that these centers are owned by three companies connected to the businessman Amant Josifi, a former political advisor of the former Foreign Minister, Olta Xhaçka during the time she headed the Ministry of Defence. 

The businessman was part of a scheme that caused damage to citizens of 2.4 billion euros, with hundreds of thousands of "victims" around the world. 

He was wanted as part of an investigation spread in several European countries, including Albania, Georgia, North Macedonia, Bulgaria and Ukraine. 

Among the customers who have been defrauded is an 80-year-old woman who lost more than $837,000 (€800,000) investing in cryptocurrencies.
