Hague Prosecutors Summon Kosovo Parliament Speaker Kadri Veseli - Gazeta
Express


2-3 minutes

  _____  

Kosovo Parliament Speaker Kadri Veseli has been summoned for questioning by
the Specialist Prosecutor's Office in The Hague, which is investigating
crimes committed in Kosovo during and after the war. A source told Gazeta
Express that Veseli is travelling to The Hague, through Ljubljana Airport. 

A source within the Specialist Prosecutor's Office confirmed to Gazeta
Express that Veseli who was senior commander of the Kosovo Liberation Army
(KLA) will be questioned by The Hague prosecutors in his capacity as a
suspect. Veseli's office has not confirmed the summons. Reportedly Veseli on
Friday afternoon has boarded an airplane from Pristina International Airport
"Adem Jashari" to Ljubljana. He was seen accompanied by four other people. 

Earlier Veseli told media that he is ready to answer any potential
invitation by the Hague war crimes court which will deal exclusively with
alleged crimes committed by the KLA. Gazeta Express has reported last month
citing sources within the Specialist Prosecutor's Office that this Hague
based court is expected to file indictments against former KLA members who
held senior positions including current president Hashim Thaci who during
the war was political representative of the KLA, and Kadri Veseli who is
known for heading the intelligence of the KLA. The Specialist Chambers and
Specialist Prosecutor's Office commonly referred by media as the special
court, has been established in 2015 by the Kosovo Parliament. Creation of
this court was done based on a report drafted by the Swiss Senator Dick
Marty which was later approved by the Council of Europe (CoE) who accuses
ex-KLA leaders Hashim Thaci, Azem Syla, Kadri Veseli, Xhavit Haliti, Ramush
Haradinaj, on organ trafficking and inhuman treatment of people held in
detention centres under control of the KLA. /GazetaExpress/
