Kosovo-based Council for Defence of Human Rights and Freedoms (CDHRF) called on relevant authorities to open an inquiry into the way the Kosovo Energy Distribution Services (KEDS) has been billing electricity. KEDS is being accused of billing unpaid electricity in the north to the rest of the Kosovo residents and CDHRF in a statement said the damages caused to regular-paying consumers need to be compensated.
“CDHRF was particularly concerned for the fact that energy consumers from the Albanian, Bosniak, Turkish, and other non-Serb communities were made to pay electricity consumed by Serbs which constitutes a flagrant violation of human rights”, the statement reads. It adds that application of double standards in the treatment of consumers is a punishable act.
