What is known
SPAK identifies Nazar Hamuylo as one of the three defendants in Albanian Case No. 18/1 for 2025 and links him to the alias ‘Kika’. On 11 March 2026, the agency announced that the case had been referred to court. At that time, Hamuylo was subject to a pre-trial detention order. [1] [2]
How the recruitment operation worked
The SPAK case file describes a route that began with a Telegram advert for office work in Poland. Candidates were invited to an interview in Warsaw, where, according to the prosecution, they were subjected to a polygraph test. The individuals were then sent to Vlora. There, according to the investigation, some of those recruited were held captive under threat and forced to recruit new workers for the manufacture, transport and sale of drugs in Eastern Europe.

What was discovered in Vlora
Following a request from the Ukrainian Embassy, the Albanian police discovered the premises where the recruited individuals were living and working. SPAK reported that 24 passports had been seized. According to the investigation, the organisers showed the workers footage of violence against those who failed to complete their tasks. For this editorial team, this episode is significant as evidence of how an ordinary job advertisement could become the first step towards forced labour. [2] [3]
Links to ‘Khimprom’
The National Police of Ukraine included the Albanian episode in its report on the international operation against ‘Khimprom’s’ recruitment units. The Albanian Public Prosecutor’s Office outlines the charges relating to human trafficking and an organised criminal group. [1] [4]
