Kosovo gang charged with providing terror funding

PRISTINA, Kosovo – Kosovo prosecutors have charged 14 persons of forming a criminal gang that also allegedly has funded terrorist activities.

The special prosecutors’ office said in a statement Thursday that seven of the 14 have also been accused of money laundry and funding terrorist activities. The charges did not explain how the group had channeled money into terrorist activities.

The prosecutor said the group provided loans at high repayment rates to people who were inexperienced or in grave financial difficulties.
