Dick Marty has warned that “some people” who were to testify before a new court for KLA crimes “have already been killed.”
The Swiss Senator and former Council of Europe (CoE) Special Rapporteur spoke a day after the killing of Bedri Curri, a former KLA member and potential witness for the court. Curri’s body was found last week near Glogovac in Kosovo.
“Witness protection is the biggest problem. We have information that some have already been killed in order to cover up the traces of the crimes,” said Marty, according to Radio Kontakt Plus, that was quoting Pristina-based daily Bota Sot.
Unnamed sources in Pristina said that Curri, a former member of the ethnic Albanian “Kosovo Liberation Army” (KLA) was a prosecution witness in trials to be conducted before the special war crimes court for KLA crimes, which will be located in The Hague.
