Former Culture Minister Astrit Haraqi is among those arrested in the anti-cocaine trafficking action.

His lawyer, Korab Bocshi, has confirmed that Haraki was arrested under suspicion of narcotics smuggling.

The EC has been arrested for alleged narcotics smuggling. In Astrin’s family, his residence has also checked, and there is nothing incriminating. They have temporarily seized some money, which has been the savings of his children from their work — that is, it is not Astrit at all, Bocshi said.

He said that Haraqi was banned for 48 hours, the decision Bocchi has complained about.

Lawyer Bocshi said Haraqi has denied involvement in this criminal act.

After Astrit, it has nothing to do with this work, because he as a public figure has been able to meet with a person or after any communication, but never in connection with such criminal acts or any such nature, said lawyer Bocshi.
