Raped, beaten, sold - a child's view of Albanian
gangs' vice grip on Britain
Scotland Yard fearful at spread of violent crime

Note from Emperor's Clothes: Commenting about a
newspaper article on the horrible scandal of tens of
thousands of girls, some not yet teenagers, lured or
abducted from Eastern Europe and the Balkans and
brought to Western Europe to work as forced
prostitutes, often by Albanian gangs, British writer
John Jay wrote the following:

The article ...illustrates the legacy of blind Western
support for Albanian terrorism masquerading as

presented as such on our TV screens.
Appeasing the cancer of crime-funded terrorism is bad
enough... Pandering to it - as NATO conveniently chose
to do in order to excuse its bombing of the Serbs - is

Now, 18 months later, it has gotten worse. Milosevic
is deprived of medical care in The Hague and the
gangster-terrorists he fought have a consolidated base
of operations in Kosovo.

But it is we, the people of the world, who suffer the

A Child's View...
Reprinted from the (London) Guardian
Anna was 16 when she ran away from her pimp and was
rescued from the streets by Scotland Yard's clubs and
vice unit. To officers the treatment she received from
Mustapha Kadiu was shocking, but it had a familiar
ring; he threatened her at knifepoint and said he was
going to kill her whenever she failed to earn between
£400 and £500 a day (she charged £30 for straight
sex). Rather than hitting her - as bruising would make
her less attractive to potential clients - he punished
her by raping her repeatedly.
Kadiu, an Albanian, ordered Anna (not her real name)
to offer her customers unprotected anal sex to earn
the money he required, but she told detectives she
felt sick at the thought. Abusive as this was,
officers discovered it was only part of a desperately
sad story.
In protective custody where Anna finally felt safe,
she started to reveal details of her past. This led
officers out of London to Romania, where she was born
and grew up. When she was 12 a relative sold her for
£600 to criminals in the former Yugoslavia who forced
her into vice. Her journey from there to north London
illustrates the slave trade of children from east to
west Europe for prostitution.
It also underlines the menace of a small number of
Albanian criminals who have established themselves
here over the past 10 years.
Bullying their way into the underworld, they have
carved out a niche in the sex industry. Their
signature is the willingness to use extreme violence,
even by the standards of an exploitative and rough
trade.
Kadiu, who had only been in the UK for five years,
brought Anna to London in July 2001, when she was 15.
By that stage Anna had already been sold on twice.
Weeks after leaving Romania she was taken to the
capital of Macedonia, Skopje, where she was forced to
work in a strip club and have sex with customers. A
few months later another gang bought her for £2,300.
She was taken to Albania and then by boat to Naples,
where she was again forced to work as a prostitute.
How Kadiu discovered her is not clear. But he decided
he wanted her and had her kidnapped and taken to Rome,
where he persuaded her that she should move with him
to the UK to start a new life "off the game".
*Corruption*
He gave her a false passport and paid for a trip which
took her via Brussels and Ostend to Harwich, Essex,
and then by train to Victoria station in London. Kadiu
travelled independently to ensure that if Anna was
stopped he would not be caught with her.
He took Anna to his house in Harlesden, where he lived
with his cousin, Edmond Ethemi, and a 22-year-old
woman who was Ethemi's girlfriend; she was also a
prostitute.
Kadiu's promise that Anna would not have to work in
vice lasted for four weeks, and then he coerced her
back into the business at saunas in Tottenham, Kings
Cross, Camden, West Hampstead and Chalk Farm.
"Kadiu would drop her off in the morning and pick her
up in the evening, up to 12 hours later, " said
Superintendent Chris Bradford, head of the clubs and
vice squad, based at Charing Cross police station.
"She worked seven days a week, and if she didn't bring
in the money, he would give her hell. Kadiu could make
as much money from pimping one girl as he could from
drug dealing."
Leaving Kadiu was by no means an easy option. "He'd
told her that if she went to the police, we would hand
her straight back to him," said Supt Bradford. "She
had been in countries where the police are corrupt and
she knew nothing of Britain.
"She didn't have any documents or any money. And she
knew that if Kadiu caught her, he would knock her
around."
Despite the risks, Anna plucked up the courage to
leave and a source tipped off the squad that a girl
was "in difficulty and needed help".
Officers found her before Kadiu could and took her to
a safehouse.
"She was traumatised," said Supt Bradford. "From what
she told us, she had been abused by one guy after
another from the age of 12."
As Anna gave statements to the police, Supt Bradford
ordered surveillance on Kadiu and Ethemi which ended
with their arrest on December 3 last year.
When officers raided their house they found £30,000
wrapped in newspaper and hidden in a fireplace behind
a dressing table and 24 grams of cocaine.
During his trial at Southwark crown court Kadiu
claimed Anna willingly went into prostitution and
denied harming her. After hearing Anna's evidence the
jury decided he was lying.
He was convicted of raping her and indecently
assaulting her, and of living off immoral earnings. He
was sentenced in December to a total of 10 years in
prison.
Ethemi, 21, was jailed for six and a half years for
living off immoral earnings and possessing cocaine.
Anna is still in the UK and is rebuilding her life.
"She is going to college and trying to put everything
behind her," said Supt Bradford. But he has to assume
there are other girls out there in her predicament,
and that Albanian criminals may be controlling them.
"Ten years ago, we'd hardly even heard of Albania," he
said. Although most of the Albanians living in London
are law abiding, small cadres that have come here in
recent years are causing the Met almost as much
concern as the established Turkish and Kurdish
networks that control the heroin supply into the
capital.
The national criminal intelligence service (NCIS)
warned three years ago of Albanian organised crime
gangs drifting across western Europe, after evidence
suggested they had established footholds in Germany,
Switzerland, Greece and Italy.
NCIS said the power of the groups could be gauged by
the fact they had taken control of the criminal
underworld in Milan after a two-year power struggle
with local mafias.
There is already some evidence to suggest that
Albanian criminals have set up in Manchester, Glasgow,
Edinburgh, Liverpool and Cardiff, and their presence
has been reported in Lancaster and Telford.
While the current threat is still relatively small,
"the potential for growth remains high", according to
NCIS.
"Albanian gangs are particularly strong in Italy,
especially in the areas of people smuggling and
prostitution," said a spokesman.
"We do not have that level of activity here yet. There
is some intelligence to suggest they are getting a
measure of control over the Soho vice trade, but it is
difficult to tell how much at this stage."
Police in the UK point to recent cases of kidnapping
and extortion to highlight what they are dealing with.
In November two Albanians were jailed for drugging and
assaulting Arap Mytak, the owner of a car wash in
Romford, Essex. Demanding a £50,000 ransom for his
release, Adriatik Malaj, 18, and Shpetin Lisha, 19,
tied him to a tree in Epping Forest and phoned his
family so they could hear his cries for help.
Another cause for concern is the difficulty in
infiltrating Albanian gangs, which operate in small
groups bound by a code of silence like the mafia's.
A recent assessment of the threat posed by Albanian
criminals found many had come to the country working
as the "muscle" for Turkish groups, but that they
might be ready to challenge their masters for control
of the multi-million pound herointrade.
*Battleground*
The home secretary, David Blunkett, and the foreign
secretary, Jack Straw, announced at the beginning of
December an international effort to curb the spread of
Balkan crime syndicates, and the Met is committed to
meeting the threat head on.
With cross-gang warfare simmering in some parts of
London, the commissioner, Sir John Stevens, has
ordered an increase in the number of armed vehicle
patrols and an increase in the number of officers
trained to use firearms.
"We will not tolerate this kind of activity," he said.
However, police sources admit that Albanian criminals
are not easily intimidated, and that there is every
chance that the UK will soon become their next
battleground.
"They are pretty tough people, used to hardship," said
one source. "If you lived in Albania and crime was
your way out to a better life, you might think you've
got nothing to lose. That's the way some of them
behave."

'JUDGMENT!' - The Video Shown As Evidence at The Hague
Tribunal!
{It can now be shipped gift wrapped...Order details
after text}
=======================================
September 26 was the first day of the Bosnian part of
the Hague trial against Slobodan Milosevic. That day
Mr. Milosevic showed excerpts from a video which
demonstrates how the British TV station, ITN,
fabricated evidence of Serbian death camps in Bosnia.
The video, co-produced by Emperor's Clothes and
reporters from Serbian Television, is called
'JUDGMENT!' It demonstrates that the famous Bosnian
pictures, especially the tall, seemingly starved man
behind barbed wire in a death camp, were a hoax. It
was not a death camp. The Muslim men were not behind
barbed wire. This is eminently clear from video
footage shot that day and reproduced in 'JUDGMENT!'
The movie shows step-by-step how the phony pictures
were created.
The Bosnian pictures had a huge impact in 1992. Twenty
minutes after they were shown on TV on August 6th,
George Bush Sr. held a press conference to proclaim a
whole new get-tough policy against the Bosnian Serbs.
This was followed by a worldwide media campaign - all
based on the Bosnian pictures.
If we at Emperor's Clothes are right that these
pictures were a fraud, then the implications are
staggering: the pictures were staged to justify a
coordinated US/European policy of demonizing the
Serbian people to justify war. The press conference
was planned to coincide with the release of the
pictures. The worldwide press campaign against the
Bosnian Serbs was planned in advance.
You can view the same video Mr. Milosevic showed at
The Hague. If you conclude that we are not telling the
truth, send the video back and we'll refund the
purchase price in full. You don't risk a penny.
You can purchase a copy of 'JUDGMENT!' for $25 in the
