Kosovo Serb doctors want probe
-"A country that allows this type of crime to happen
in its territory while its official institutions have
no information about it, is either covering the crime
up, or is an accomplice to it...."
KOSOVSKA MITROVICA - An association gathering together
Serb doctors in Kosovo has called for an investigation
into allegations of organ trafficking.
Former Chief Hague Prosecutor Carla Del Ponte wrote in
her new book that her office dropped an investigation
into claims that in 1999 the KLA kidnapped some 300
Serbs to transport them to Albania, where their vital
organs were removed.
Del Ponte said it was impossible to continue her
investigation into the case after 2003.
Now the Serb Medical Society is asking the ministries
of health, justice and foreign affairs to start an
official probe.
The vice-chairman of the organization, Doctor Milan
Jakovljevic, said they will seek an answer from the
World Health Organization, WHO, as to why this body
did not investigate the claims.
He also said the greatest responsibility lies with
expert medical personnel that took part in this crime.
"A country that allows this type of crime to happen in
its territory while its official institutions have no
information about it, is either covering the crime up,
or is an accomplice to it. Therefore we are asking
that our state severs relations with the republic of
Albania," Jakovljeviæ said today.
