“Ambassador” sentenced by Kosovo counterfeiting documents in Germany

Hanover Land Court has sentenced Shefqet H on Tuesday. (66-year-old ) to four years in prison, among other things for smuggling with foreigners and forging documents, documented in 19 cases, writes wild.de.

Kosovar from Schenoverdingen (with the nickname “Ambassador”) has provided false residence permits, driver's license as well as control stamps for foreign passports. These documents, according to the Public Prosecutor's Office, are coveted by criminals who want to avoid the obligation of respecting the 90-day period of residence, as much as the Schengen visa allows them.

“Ambassador” had received up to 500 euros for such services. Kosovo citizens have been arrested during an attack on smugglers in June 2020, albinfo.ch conveys. The investigators had tapped his phone for months. In progress, Shefqet H. has accepted most of the accusations.

Prosecutor Regina Steig has demanded more than six years for the accused, who for the last time in 2009 was sentenced in Hamburg to four years' removal.
