June 23, 2023

The police arrested five Albanians on Thursday in a house on Paradijslaan in Rotterdam-Crooswijk during a so-called "undermining action".

Officers saw a car driving on Thursday that caught their eye. It stopped at a house on Paradijslaan. As the occupants enter the home, officers check the residential address and license plate number within the police systems. This shows that there may be a person present in the house who is still under arrest to be arrested.

When the police then enter the house, they find five men and three firearms. The man who was spotted is not present in the house. The five men aged 26, 32, 34 (2x) and 36 from Albania have been arrested.

During the raid, three firearms, a silencer, money, several data carriers, a luxury watch, jewelery and a vehicle were seized.
