The dangerous Albanian criminals on the run from the law: Drug dealers, a kidnapper and a burglar are among at least 10 Balkan fugitives wanted by police in Britain

and warrants.

A recent spate of accidental prisoner releases has renewed focus on the number of foreign criminals dodging justice amid failings by the Prison Service and police.

The issue is particularly acute among Albanians, who are the largest single foreign nationality group in British jails.

Gangs from the Balkan country are also heavily involved in people smuggling and are known to offer their services to criminals looking to flee the UK.

One undercover Mail reporter – posing as the relative of a man on the run after killing someone – was previously promised a same-day trip to the Continent for £3,000.

Albanian fugitives include Zenel Marku, 35, who walked out of HMP Hollesley open prison in Suffolk in 2021 while serving nine years for drug offences.

Many of the offenders are wanted on recall to prison for breaching their licence conditions.

They include Ajet Xhaja, who operated a cannabis farm in Oxfordshire; Liverpool drug dealers Juli Molla and Steljan Miraka; and Andon Llalla, who lived in Harrogate and has managed to evade police since October 2021.

One of the most concerning cases involves Klej Doci, a member of a three-strong gang who kidnapped a man over a debt before holding him captive for five days.

 

Recent Home Office data confirms nearly 15,000 international students entered the UK on study visas and later claimed asylum in the year ending September 2025, down 15% from the prior year but still representing about 13% of total claims (110,051 overall). Primarily from Pakistan (40%), India (17%), and Bangladesh (12%), these cases often occur as visas expire, leading to asylum accommodation use despite initial self-funding declarations.universityworldnews+2

Government Response​

The Labour government under Keir Starmer launched a crackdown, including mass text/email warnings to over 132,000 students against "misusing" asylum to extend stays, with Home Secretary Yvette Cooper vowing tougher eligibility checks and swift refusals for weak claims. Measures also target the Graduate Route post-study work visa and introduce a levy on international student fees amid net migration concerns (728,000 in 2024).timeshighereducation+3

Broader Context​

Asylum claims from visa holders tripled since 2022, with study visas the most common route, fueling political pressure from parties like Reform UK after their 2025 local election gains. Universities, reliant on international fees, urge ethical agent practices and proof of legitimate study intent to avoid broader restrictions. Total study visas rose slightly to 439,924 in the year to September 2025, though dependant numbers fell sharply.timesofindia.indiatimes+2

Two-tier policing of protests is REAL: Damning report into the Met calls for Labour mayor Sadiq Khan to be stripped of control

Two-tier policing of protests is 'not merely a perception but a reality' in Britain's biggest force, a damning report has revealed.

Scotland Yard is prioritising the rights of demonstrators over the ordinary public, failing to make arrests and treating some protest groups more leniently, which may lead the public to believe 'the forces of law and order have lost control of the streets and yielded control to a mob,' according to a new assessment.

A report by the think tank Policy Exchange has called for the Metropolitan Police to be put back into 'special measures' due to its failure to handle protests properly and tackle runaway rates of mobile phone thefts, burglary and shoplifting.

In a stark assessment of the Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley's three years in office, the report points to public confidence in the force falling to an all-time low as many residents and visitors believe 'there is a culture of impunity to crime in London'.

It comes as the force is solving only a tiny fraction of thefts, identifying the culprit in merely 1 in 20 robberies and burglaries, 1 in 13 shoplifting offences and 1 in 179 street muggings.

Now the Policy Exchange wants London Mayor Sir Sadiq Khan to be stripped of responsibility for the Met's oversight, saying the Home Secretary should be given the power to ensure the force's performance improves.

Entitled 'A Long, Long Way To Go', the report criticises the force for choosing 'to prioritise the rights of protestors over the rights of the wider public' and accuses officers of doing more to protect Muslims over the Jewish community in various demonstrations.

It says: 'With the apparently differential treatment of different groups based on either the cause of the protest or the identity of those protesting, it has become increasingly clear that "two-tier policing" is not merely a perception but a reality.
'This inconsistent application of police powers and the law is ..........
