A group of 11 persons of Serbian and Russian nationality who have been arrested near Podujevo are currently kept in up to 48-hour investigative detention, RTS reported referring to the Kosovo police.
Further procedure will be decided on by a prosecutor after the detained persons have been questioned.
The six Russian and five Serbian citizens, who have been named by the Kosovo police with their initials and year of birth, were arrested on Tuesday for “illegally crossing the administrative line.”
The Kosovo police said in a statement, carried by the KoSSev website, they had “obtained information in advance” that Serbian and Russian citizens would try to illegally cross into Kosovo from central Serbia, in a village near the town of Podujevo.
The prosecutor, the Bar Association of Kosovo, and the Russian Liaison Office in Pristina have been informed about the case, the statement said.
