Raped, beaten, sold - a child's view of Albanian gangs' vice grip on Britain

The Guardian, UK ^ | 23-Dec-2002 | Nick Hopkins, crime correspondent

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.

Note from Jared Israel (http://emperors-clothes.com/): 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:

[Start Comment by John Jay]

The article ...illustrates the legacy of blind Western support for Albanian terrorism masquerading as "victimization" in 1998/99... and fraudulently 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 folly almost beyond belief!

The Serbs should have been left to defeat these ruthless expansionists. Yugoslavia's Macedonian neighbours today must bitterly regret they were not... and the whole wide world is now finding out, to its cost. http://emperors-clothes.com/docs/crime2.htm

[End Comment by John Jay]

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.

"For they have sown the wind..."

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

[Wingy]

Just another, in a long and growing longer daily, list of foreign affairs blunders that the Clinton Administration stumbled into. Hillery had the story wrong, but got Bill to bomb away. It's okay though...It was 'For The Children'.

[MonroeDNA]

Albanians = Muslims, correct?

[Savage Beast]

So these two monsters got 6 and 10 years respectively? Then they'll be roaming the streets again? Preying on children and teenagers and who else? They should be jailed for life.

"We will not tolerate this kind of activity," he said.

The facts seem to indicate that you will.

Kosovo-Albanians = Albanians = Al-Qaida.
Al-Qaida is believed to have operations in 60 countries, active cells in 20, including the United States. It is also believed to operate training centers in both Afghanistan and Sudan, the first beginning operations in 1994 with representatives from Egyptian, Algerian, Tunisian and Palestinian extremist groups. Among the countries or regions identified as having active cells of al-Qaida are Pakistan, Afghanistan, Kosovo, Chechnya, Philippines, Egypt, Tunisia.

FBI and MSNBC Documents Cited by Pres. Milosevic
[Posted 3 April 2002]

---

When President Milosevic cited FBI and MSNBC documents supporting the charge that The Kosovo Liberation Army works with Al Qaeda, the media responded as if the existence of these documents was in doubt. Actually, all it takes to find them is a computer and access to a good search engine. We used google.com for the MSNBC quote and Lexis for the FBI testimony.

-- ICDSM.

DOCUMENT ONE:

Congressional Testimony December 18, 2001, Tuesday

SUBCOMMITTEE ON INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS AND TERRORISM

COMMITTEE ON FOREIGN RELATIONS, UNITED STATES SENATE

"GLOBAL REACH OF AL-QAEDA "

TESTIMONY-BY: J.T. CARUSO, ACTING ASSISTANT DIRECTOR

AFFILIATION: COUNTERTERRORISM DIVISION FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION

[NOTE FROM WWW.TENC.NET The following is the portion of Mr. Caruso's testimony that is a) relevant to the issues raised by President Milosevic at The Hague and b) includes what he quoted. This excerpt is unedited - that is, nothing is missing from the text.]

STATEMENT OF J. T. CARUSO ACTING ASSISTANT DIRECTOR COUNTERTERRORISM DIVISION FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION

Good morning, Madam Chairwoman and Members of the Subcommittee. My name is J.T. Caruso and I am the Acting Assistant Director of the FBI's Counterterrorism Division. I am pleased to appear before the Subcommittee to discuss Al Qaeda International.

From its inception until approximately 1991, the group was headquartered in Afghanistan and Peshawar, Pakistan. Then in 1991, the group relocated to the Sudan where it was headquartered until approximately 1996, when Bin Laden, Mohammed Atef and other members of Al-Qaeda returned to Afghanistan. During the years Al- Qaeda was headquartered in Sudan the network continued to maintain offices in various parts of the world and established businesses which were operated to provide income and cover to Al- Qaeda operatives.

AL-OAEDA TIES TO OTHER TERRORIST ORGANIZATIONS

Although Al-Qaeda functions independently of other terrorist organizations, it also functions through some of the terrorist organizations that operate under its umbrella or with its support, including: [I';m going to skip over this next bit] the Al-Jihad, the Al-Gamma Al-Islamiyya (Islamic Group - led by Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman and later by Ahmed Refai Taha, a/k/a "Abu Yasser al Masri, "), Egyptian Islamic Jihad, and a number of jihad groups in other countries, including the Sudan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Somalia, Eritrea, Djibouti, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bosnia, Croatia, Albania, Algeria, Tunisia, Lebanon, the Philippines, Tajikistan, Azerbaijan, the Kashmiri region of India, and the Chechen region of Russia. Al-Qaeda also maintained cells and personnel in a number of countries to facilitate its activities, including in Kenya, Tanzania, the United Kingdom, Canada and the United States. By banding together, Al-Qaeda proposed to work together against the perceived common enemies in the West - particularly the United States which Al-Qaeda regards as an "infidel" state which provides essential support for other "infidel" governments. Al-Qaeda responded to the presence of United States armed forces in the Gulf and the arrest, conviction and imprisonment in the United States of persons belonging to Al-Qaeda by issuing fatwahs indicating that attacks against U.S. interests, domestic and foreign, civilian and military, were both proper and necessary. Those fatwahs resulted in attacks against U.S. nationals in locations around the world including Somalia, Kenya, Tanzania, Yemen, and now in the United States. Since 1993, thousands of people have died in those attacks.

[Question_Assumptions]

You mean to tell me that prostitutes aren't all pretty older women who work infrequently and have sex with gentlemen while waiting for their Prince Charming to marry them? THE MOVIE LIE TO US? The next thing they'll be telling us is that adult movie starts aren't all well adjusted people who came from nice normal homes.

(That's sarcasm, for the humor impaired. The sex industry survives, in part, because too many people have a fantasy view of prostitution and adult movies and think that no one gets hurt. Yeah, right. What we need is some commercials about the sex industry like the anti-drug comemrcials that point out that drug money funds terrorism.)

[MonroeDNA]

Holy cow! Thanks for the info.

[Chi-townChief]

Not necessarily - I have some people down the street that are Albanian Orthodox with a Nativity scene, the Christmas tree, Santa Claus, et al. Kind of weird people though.

[ThinkDifferent]

You mean to tell me that prostitutes aren't all pretty older women who work infrequently and have sex with gentlemen while waiting for their Prince Charming to marry them?

Of course not. Because prostitution is usually illegal, prostitutes have no legal protection from their employers and customers, and often wind up in dangerous situations. Note that this story did not take place in Nevada.

What we need is some commercials about the sex industry like the anti-drug comemrcials that point out that drug money funds terrorism.

You mean the anti-drug commercials full of misrepresentations and blatant lies that have been found to have no effect on drug use? No thanks.

[Just another Joe]

How many here are willing to upbraid the, so called, men who use these girls?
Yes, there will always be criminals willing to provide what some people want.
If the "men" weren't willing to pay for it the criminals wouldn't be trying to provide it.

[xJones]

Just a ping.

[F-117A]

Bump so you can keep up on your people.

[dennisw]

Albanians = Muslims, correct?

25% of Albanians are Christian. Such as John Belushi and his family. But you have the right idea. Criminal Albanian Muslim scum are a problem for Europe/the UK.

[Navy Patriot]

If the "men" weren't willing to pay for it the criminals wouldn't be trying to provide it.

I read your quotations around men as indication that those you refer to are not men, a MAN would not use a woman as a prostitute, but would enter into an agreement with a woman for mutual support, ie; marriage. Therefor those you refer to are less than men. If my reading is correct, I agree.

However, the other meaning is more difficult. Only if all male humans were Saints would we have the force of will necessary to deny and supress a natural human drive more powerful than hunger and thirst when unaddressed. In this imperfect world there will always be customers, and I dread to think of how many customers would have to be eliminated to deny the criminals their market. I believe less damage would be done, and better results achieved by eliminating the criminals. A not totally fair solution for a very unfair and imperfect world.

Wiseacre comment: If you mean that the men should not pay for what they get, isn't that fraud?

[ABrit]

This is a Balkan problem, not just an Albanian one, of course you and Jared/Communist ignore this.

PODGORICA -- Tuesday -- The arrest of Montenegro's deputy state attorney on charges of pimping and human trafficking is being seen as a first important step in the fight against organized crime in this tiny Yugoslav republic.

Police said deputy state attorney Zoran Piperovic, 46, and three other men were arrested on Sunday after an investigation "led to uncovering a network of trafficking in human beings and organised prostitution."

Non-governmental groups on Monday welcomed the arrest, with Nebojsa Medojevic of the Group for Changes calling for further moves by police to "reveal all involved in this crime."

"There must be no privileged or protected individuals or institutions in the efficient fight against crime in Montenegro," Medojevic said in a statement.

Trafficking of young women, mostly from Russia, Moldova, Ukraine and Bulgaria, mainly for prostitution, has been widely rumoured in Montenegro, a mountainous republic at the Adriatic sea, which, along with Serbia, forms the Yugoslav federation.

I agree with the first part of your statement. That IS what I meant.

The statement I have italicized though, there are other ways to take care of that natural human drive besides visiting a prostitute.
I also agree that in this imperfect world there WILL always be customers. Prostitution, however, is rarely the "victimless crime" that some espouse it to be.

[Ungrateful]

Thanks for proving to us that prostitution exists in Montenegro (just like in at least 150 other countries).

But the Montenegrins aren't the ones who virtually have a monopoly on prostitution in most of western Europe. When have you ever heard of a Serb pimp abusing underage girls in Britain? The Albanians are responsible for that.

[ABrit]

We get all the best criminals here, Mafia, Triad, Russian, Yardie, Maltese; they all have a go, and they all lose.

Funny, we don't get Yugoslav criminals here, they don't need to steal money here, they already stole it in Yugoslavia.
