Albanian PM has said a serving major of its armed forces died when a helicopter he piloted crashed while trafficking illegal drugs from Morocco.

A senior officer of the Albanian armed forces was one of the pilots who died in a helicopter crash in Spain Wednesday while trafficking illegal drugs from Morocco, Albanian prime minister said Thursday.



Prime Minister Edi Rama told a session of the parliament that the deceased, Sokol Feka, was a serving major of the Armed Forces of Albania with around 18 years of service.
