Albania’s Special Prosecution Office (SPAK) has established that nine intelligence diagrams seized by investigators from the car of businessman Ergys Agasi originated from the country’s State Intelligence Service (SHISH). However, investigators have yet to determine how the classified documents ended up in his possession.

The documents were allegedly compiled by officers of SHISH’s Directorate of Organised Crime and Trafficking. Their contents include operational intelligence concerning specific individuals and groups suspected of involvement in organised criminal activity.
The diagrams reportedly contain analyses based on intelligence gathering, telephone tracking in the field, and the collection of information both inside and outside Albania. According to the findings described by SPAK, this type of operational research and intelligence assessment falls within the specialised responsibilities of SHISH agents.
The discovery is significant because the material was not ordinary administrative documentation. It reportedly contained sensitive intelligence information gathered through operations conducted by the state intelligence service.
The central question, however, remains unanswered: how did the classified SHISH documents reach Ergys Agasi?
Despite establishing the origin of the nine pages, SPAK has reportedly been unable to prove the circumstances in which they were transferred from the intelligence service to Agasi’s vehicle.
Investigators are examining suspicions that the classified diagrams may have been taken out of SHISH through Vlora Hyseni and subsequently handed to Agasi, who has been described in reports about the case as her partner.
However, this remains an investigative hypothesis. At this stage, the available findings have not established that Hyseni was responsible for removing or transferring the documents, nor have investigators publicly identified the person who ultimately delivered them to Agasi.
The distinction is crucial: SPAK has reportedly established where the documents originated and what kind of intelligence work they contained, but the chain through which they reached the businessman remains unclear.
Determining who accessed the classified material, how it was removed, and whether it was subsequently shared with individuals outside the intelligence service will be central to resolving this part of the investigation.
The case raises serious questions about the protection of classified intelligence information and the possible exposure of sensitive operational material concerning organised crime in Albania. Nevertheless, responsibility for the alleged leak cannot be attributed to any individual unless the investigation establishes the facts.
