Albanian's past, wounded in Athens, had kidnapped the journalist's son

New details have been discovered for 30-year-old Albanian Esmin Ferhati, who wounded yesterday in Athens by a police officer. The latter, according to foreign media, wounded him for self-defence because the Albanian attacked him with a screwdriver.

Greek media report that the Albanian, along with other criminals, had turned the campus dorms of Athens' Polytechnic University into their headquarters. Giving 100 euros a month to each room and without paying electricity, internet and water, they lived as a family.

They circulated Mercedes and enjoyed luxury life with black money from looting, drug dealing, theft, and even kidnappings, wrote foreign media.

The 30-year-old “Esko”, as it was called in the squares of the illegals, who was arrested yesterday after the attack by screwdrivers and a police officer, was charged with kidnapping of a minor child, the son of a journalist, in May 2019 and even hid him in student residences until they entered the house of Pagraty and robbed his father.

The major leader of the Polytechnic University gang is considered to be 30-year-old “Esko”.

This man was involved in lawlessness by his uncle, sentenced to life in prison because he killed a man and then escaped from the prisons of Naphpleon.

Charges of 30-year-old

“ESko” is charged with five criminal cases. The first involves the kidnapping of the journalist's 17-year-old son on May 11th, 2019. The bandits kidnapped the minor from the Zrokow area as he returned to his home in Pagraty.

They raped him and put a hood on his head, put him in the car, and took him to campus. There the child was held hostage for many hours in the hands of Albanian robbers, who after taking the keys to the house, visited him to plunder.

At the time of the attack, both parents and his younger brother were present. The journalist, in an effort to protect his family, has clashed with them by beating and wounding him lightly.

Eight months later, authorities managed to cuff one of the authors, while the rest remained missing, with police assessment that they had found refuge in their homeland.

In the end, it seems that “ESko” has found refuge in the old house of Polytechnic University. The next instance is the sequenting of Athens University equipment, over 300 thousand euros, the other two counts of robbery and drug trafficking, while the last for serial theft in stores in a large shopping mall in the northern suburbs.

Athens Security Directorate police officers succeeded in investigating the major operation in co-operation with the OPK and the Drug Prosecutor, which was organised in the early hours of yesterday and resulted in the slight injury of a 35-year-old policeman after it was attacked by Albanian.
