Residents of Tragjas, Dukat, Orikum and Radhima claim that an American citizen, a former senior official promoted by Prime Minister Edi Rama, is one of the beneficiaries of their properties through forgery.
Lawyer Arben Llangazi said they have uncovered a massive money laundering and property fraud scheme. 180 residents are demanding an investigation by the head of government regarding the extortion of their properties.
