Famous mafia leader captured in Slovakia: Wanted for years

30-year-old Magdalena Kralka was accused of managing the financial operations of a Poland-based criminal organization. Accused of crimes such as drug trafficking and money laundering, Kralka entered the criminal underworld after the death of her former boyfriend.

Rising rapidly in 2018 to take over the gang's financial affairs, Kralka is accused of smuggling more than 65 kilograms of cocaine and marijuana. The court kept the sentence relatively light on the grounds that Kralka was not the main leader of the gang and was following the orders of the previous leader, Mariusz Z.

WAS UNDER INTERPOL SURVEILLANCE

When Polish police conducted a major operation against the gang in 2019, Kralka managed to cover her tracks. Having succeeded in evading capture for six years, Kralka was included on Interpol's Red Notice list.

Authorities stated that Kralka lived in different countries using fake documents and changing her identity. However, her flight ended with an operation carried out in Slovakia.

Kralka was tried for drug trafficking and money laundering and was sentenced to 10 years in prison and a fine of 21 thousand Pounds. Prosecutors stated that the gang was involved in acts of violence and carried out attacks on rival fan groups.
