The actions of the Albanians continue to remain under the scrutiny of the British media.

The Daily Telegraph writes today that Albanian criminal groups are trying to smuggle weapons into Great Britain through the port of Durrës, where the British government is obliged to strengthen security.

Police, it said, found eight Glock pistols with ammunition hidden in a food van at the port on Monday night. The weapons were discovered by the Albanian police who used the scan before the Mercedes Benz vehicle was targeted for Ancona in Italy.

The van had UK number plates and, according to police sources, its destination was an address in Luton. The driver has already been arrested and is being interrogated. But he claims that he has no knowledge of weapons and that he simply had to deliver food to the British relatives of an Albanian, whom he says he has never met before.
