Biography[edit]
Rudaj is an ethnic Albanian from Ulcinj, Montenegro who immigrated to the United States more than a decade ago. Federal prosecutors said Rudaj was the triggerman in a 1993 shooting of another organized crime figure after a high-speed chase in the Bronx. Rudaj hung out the sunroof of a car and fired at Guy Peduto as he fled in another car from Rudaj and three others. They also described an incident where Rudaj showed up with 20 thugs to get late mob boss John Gotti's table at Rao's, the legendary and exclusive East Harlem Italian restaurant. Throughout his years as boss of the Rudaj Organization, he was affiliated with Nikolla Dedaj and Nardino Colotti, who had ties to the late Gambino soldier Skinny Phil Loscalzo.[1]
On Friday, June 16, 2006, Alex Rudaj, 38, was sentenced to 27 years in federal prison for racketeering, extortion and gambling offenses.
