The Cameroonian Josoue Ngankam as well as his associates Jeniffer Chollet from Switzerland and Zinedine Nkeh from Cameroon can suffer in Albania from 6 years in prison each, after they were found guilty of forgery of money and fraud by the investigations of the prosecution which gave the claim today. Prosecutor Bledar Valikaj requested a sentence of 5 years for each charge for each, and in combination of sentences, they should suffer 6 years in prison.
The 53-year-old from Cameroon, Josoua Ngankam, was found with 1.2 million fake euros in Rinas, while his accomplices were arrested a few days later. Switzerland Chollet had been living in our country for several years, and her name as an accomplice appeared after receiving Ngankam's statements. . Jennifer Chollet, in addition to the cooperation in the sale and purchase of properties that she had established in Tirana, had also established connections with the exchange. She says she is not guilty and has no knowledge of the counterfeit money seizure incident in Rinas.
Zinedine Nkeh, 45 years old, turns out to be Toni, the person Ngankam had earlier declared to be the Albanian who had given him the bag where the money was found in Tirana. It is learned that Nkeh, who according to police sources was the main author in the bringing of fake money, had given him an address of a hotel in Laprakë where they would meet to receive the bag.
Zinedine Nkeh had arrived in Albania a few days before Ngangam with a transit line. During the search in the apartment of Chollet, 39 years old, sawdust and other products used for the preparation of counterfeit banknotes were found and seized as material evidence.
279,000 euros printed, divided into denominations of 500, 200 and 100, as well as fake money production slips with a much larger value totaling about 1.2 million euros, were found in the suitcase carried by the Cameroonian Josoue Ngankam, who came from Paris, transiting to Istanbul airport.
Cameroonian Josoue Ngankam has been to Albania twice and played the role of courier. After being stopped by the police, the Cameroonian said that he left France via Istanbul to Tirana and that a compatriot named Toni would be waiting for him at the airport. Toni gave him the suitcase in France and told him that when he arrived in Rinas he should wait for him in a cafe inside the airport.
