— A medical student detained On several consecutive occasions in recent months, some students (especially medical students) have been pursued and detained by us because they were caught trading peditine ampoules that they steal from the hospitals where they do their practical training, stated an employee of Tirana Police Station No. 1. He stressed that this illegal and highly dangerous trade makes one suspect that there may be regular drug users in Tirana. The most recent case was a few days ago, when the criminal police of Tirana Police Station No. 1 detained Luan Ruçi, a 24-year-old fifth-year student at the Faculty of Medicine, who was caught red-handed selling four peditine ampoules. For reasons of protecting the confidentiality of the investigation, he said, we cannot disclose the names of those who tried to buy the ampoules, nor the names of those with whom we suspect the student collaborated in stealing them. This is because the police, in cooperation with the prosecution service, are working to uncover this mafia network involved in drugs and to apprehend and detain its members. He concluded that the case file has been sent to the Tirana Prosecutor’s Office for further investigation.
