The Antwerp correctional officer has sentenced Ivan D., the top man of a well-known recycling company in the Antwerp port, to a five-year prison sentence. The man has made his company available to an Albanian gang to import cocaine.
45-year-old Ivan D. from Beveren-Waas is the manager of a number of companies in the heart of the Waasland harbour. The company is not only specialized in waste processing and recycling, the company is also active in goods transhipment and has a warehouse, transport vehicles and cranes.

Vandemeuleubroucke was surprised that D. would not flee and that there was no risk of recidivism. “The man’s business to keep his business straight. He has 37 plans,” said Vandemeulebrouke.
The Albanian gang, which was not only involved in the importation of cocaine, but also set up cannabis plantations on a large scale, operated from an apartment on the Grote Steenweg in Berchem. The leaders expire sentences of up to 8 years settlement.
