Five terrorist suspects put under one-month detention

Prishtinë/Pristina Basic Court decided on Monday to put the five arrested terrorist suspects under thirty-day detention.

The Prosecution continues to insist that no poison was found with the suspects.

Following the two hearing sessions, the Kosovo Special Prosecution has decided on one-month custody for the five suspects of being ISIS members and planning to poison the water at Badovc Lake. The custody measure against the suspects, Besnik Latifi, Enis Latifi, Milazim Haxhiaj, Gazmend Haliti and Fehmi Musa was set based on the grounded suspicion that the suspects have committed the criminal offences.

On the other hand, Kosovo Assembly Speaker Kadri Veseli qualified these five abovementioned persons with unusual terms.

“We will never allow such despicable persons, who tend to lead Kosovo, which has Western orientation, towards an abyss, primitivism with Islam faith. This will not be tolerated,” Veseli said.

Veseli said that such persons are damaging Kosovo people and they must be moved away.

Meanwhile, Kosovo Police officials said that two of the arrested were arrested earlier as participants in Syrian fights.

The arrest of these five terrorism suspects has made Kosovo Police increase number of its forces in public institutions, in particular in vicinity to Badovc Lake, where three of these persons were arrested. Police says that there is no room for panic.

The Assembly of Kosovo will not discuss establishment of Special Court this week, as the Government still has not proceeded the amendments that open way to its establishment.

Assembly Speaker Kadri Veseli said that establishment of Special Court is prolonging the process of recognitions and other integration processes of Kosovo.

Maric: Votes for Special Court are impeding Kosovo-Serbia dialogue

According to Kosovo minister of local government administration Ljubomir Maric, the insufficient votes for establishment of the Special Court are also impeding Kosovo-Serbia dialogue.

Maric told Serbian news agency Tanjug that delays in establishment of Special Court are making dialogue between Prishtinë/Pristina and Belgrade difficult.

According to him, Srpska List has given its support to Special Court establishment from the very beginning and that it remains open to support its establishment, which, as Maric says, is more than necessary to reach final reconciliation and resolution of all the open issues.

Maric underlined that dialogue is expected to return to its normal course with the establishment of Special Court, which at a certain moment will also bring to the agreement about the Association of Serb Municipalities.

Apiko and Iliria do not belong to Visoki Decani Monastery

(KTV)

Since 2000 the Municipality of Deçan/Decane and the Visoki Decani Monastery continue the battle for public properties – Apiko and Iliria. Recently, the Trial Panel of the Special Chamber of the Supreme Court of Kosovo has decided that these public properties do not belong to the Monastery.

The Panel’s decision taken on 12 June 2015 has raised the hopes of Deçan/Decane authorities that justice will be put in the right place.

The Trial Panel’s decision, which the municipality officially received on Friday, says that Special Chamber of the Supreme Court is not competent to review these cases; therefore the case was asked to be reinstated to Pejë/Pec Basic Court, Deçan/Decane branch.

According to Mayor of Deçan/Decane, Rasim Selmanaj, this decision is fair. The decision is also being welcomed by the civil society in this town.

At the Visoki Decani Monastery did not say a single word about the court’s decision. Sava Janjic said that he is not willing to talk about this issue.
