Albanian People-Smuggling Kingpin Slips Back into the UK After Serving Half His Sentence

An Albanian crime boss who orchestrated the smuggling of hundreds of migrants into the UK has secretly returned after serving only half of his ten-year prison sentence in Belgium.  

 

 

Alket Dauti, 36, played a central role in a ruthless smuggling network that transported migrants, including children, in refrigerated lorries from Belgium to Britain. He was arrested in 2018 at his council flat in Penge, South-East London, and later extradited to Belgium, where he had already been sentenced in absentia to a decade behind bars. Court proceedings revealed that Dauti, who arrived in the UK in 2009, had been living on a visa that expired in 2018, meaning he should have been barred from returning due to his criminal record.  

 

An investigation has uncovered that Dauti served just five years of his sentence before being deported to Albania. However, sources in Albania have confirmed that he left for Europe last year. Analysis of his TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook accounts shows he has been back in Britain since at least last November.  

 

Photos posted on Facebook place him back at the same council estate in Penge where he lived with his wife and children before his arrest. Last week, he uploaded a TikTok video of himself driving on what appeared to be a residential street in London. Two days later, the clip was deleted. Home Office officials stated they have no record of Dauti re-entering the country. Attempts to contact him at his Penge home were unsuccessful, but when reached via Facebook Messenger, he responded on a British mobile number.  

 

Speaking about his return, Dauti insisted, "I have been living in the UK legally since June last year." He claimed to have flown directly from Albania into Luton Airport. When pressed on how he managed to re-enter despite his criminal past, he said, "I am with papers... What do you mean I am not allowed to come back? I haven’t done any crime in the UK." When told that the Home Office had no record of his arrival, he warned reporters not to visit his home again.  

 

Dauti was arrested in 2018 alongside his cousins, Kujdesi Dauti, 41, and Sabah Zaka, 40. Both were sentenced to eight years in prison in Belgium in absentia but remain in the UK fighting extradition. Their smuggling operation charged migrants £13,000 for a seat in the front of a lorry and £8,000 for a place in the back.  

 

The Home Office declined to comment on the situation.

How the hell did he get a council flat when citizens homeless?

No surprise.

 

Keir is focusing on Ukraine's borders, not British ones.

Because those citizens are indigenous Brits, so they are second class citizens as far as Labour are concerned.

Immigration control has been non-existent in the UK for many years. I remember a time when the entrance and departure of all people, Brits and foreigners alike, was meticulously recorded, and often closely questioned if there was any doubt about their credibility. Now it's free movement for all. Not good.

Wonder what he does for a living now?

Steel mill,hod carrier or miner perhaps?

[Red Forever]

Are we sure that his wife and children aren’t British?

[Woke to Sounds]

He's just a fella.

 

Small potato.

 

A mere window dressing working for the hidden hand that's above the law.
