Two young Albanians in Britain are convicted of theft

Two illegal Albanian immigrants who tried to burglarize a house will be deported from Britain.

23-year-old Sebastiano Gjoni and 26-year-old Skelidano Koliqi were arrested after they were caught burglarizing a luxury home in the village of Alderley Edge in January this year.

The police were alerted when the residents of the property called when they heard noises coming from under the stairs at 8 o'clock in the evening, writes "Daily Mail". They shouted "thieves, thieves" and locked themselves in the bedroom until the police arrived after 13 minutes with a dog that followed the tracks through the snow and found the two youths.

They had not taken any objects from the house, nor had they caused any damage to it.

The court learned that Gjoni and Koliqi had gone clandestinely to Britain in the hope of working, but after being caught by the police, the 23-year-old said: "It's good that they caught us. It is very cold here. We have nowhere to go."

The two young men had traveled 300 miles from where they were staying in Harringay in north London before breaking into the house and finding its owners inside.

Police discovered that John had committed another burglary 5 days earlier at a £3 million property in Halebarns.

The prosecutor of the case said that he had left Albania at the age of 14 and traveled alone to Germany. At the age of 17, he had reached Britain clandestinely. His father had come to law and worked in the construction industry.

"My mother and grandmother are in Albania. The grandmother is 90 years old and sick. John said he has no home, no job and has been living here illegally since 2018. He is intelligent. Besides Albanian, he speaks Italian, German and English fluently, while he understands Spanish and Portuguese. He spent 9 months in a youth prison studying advanced mathematics. He is an enthusiastic artist and for this he is congratulated in prison. He understands that these are serious crimes and he will return to Albania".

As for Koliq, the prosecutor said that he did manual labor for 50-60 pounds a day. His lawyer said that "he is sorry for the crimes he committed. He knows what consequences his actions would have on the residents and he is remorseful. This is reflected in his statement.

He didn't expect to find anyone home. Nothing was taken or damaged. He came to Britain in desperate circumstances. He came in the middle of a blood feud in Albania that put his life in danger. This limited his views and in London he was doing jobs that did not pay well.

A friend suggested they go to Manchester for a better job. He didn't have a home, he slept in a car. It's no excuse, but it does explain some of the desperate choices he made. He speaks English with difficulty, which makes the current conditions in prison difficult for him", concludes the lawyer.

The court sentenced Gjon to 28 months in prison, while Koliq to 18 after both admitted to the criminal offense. They will be deported to Albania after they are released from prison.
