The "Kurum" company is at the center of a big scandal, under investigation for the trafficking of two ships with 60 and 40 containers of hazardous waste, namely dust from the ash of metallurgical chimneys, towards Thailand.

In Turkey, the owner Asmet Kurum has been involved in another fraud scandal, where the Turkish media accuses him of having received hundreds of millions of euros from Turkish and British banks, as well as 210 million euros from Albanian banks, by falsifying balance sheets, Joq writes .

The scandal has reached international proportions, including a list of defrauded banks in Turkey, Albania and England.

According to the Turkish newspaper "Sabah", the scandal of the company "Kürüm Demir", which has operated in Albania through "Kürüm International SHA", is about a wide fraud against 33 banks in these countries.

Turkish journalist Dilek Güngor writes that this deception was so sophisticated that "even the devil would not think of it."

"Kürüm Demir" is one of the largest iron production companies in Turkey and until 2013 had a good income.

However, after this year, rising costs for extracting iron from underground assets caused losses, forcing its managers to use fictitious balance sheets to hide financial difficulties.

Through these balance sheets and phantom companies, "Kürüm Demir" defrauded the banks and continued to get loans, even though the company was on the verge of bankruptcy.

In Albania, "Kürüm International SHA" is suspected of having received more than 210 million euros in loans from banks through falsified balance sheets, including the banks "IFC", "Raiffesein", "Credit Europea", "Societe Generale (now OTP)", and "NBG Bank".

The company's executives have been charged with serious criminal offences, including fraud and money laundering.

This scandal has caused great concern in Turkey, at a time when the banking sector is facing great financial difficulties.

It remains to be seen how this fraud will affect Albania, where 210 million euros have been "absorbed" from Albanian banks alone.
