Kosovo’s Minister of Justice, Dhurata Hoxha, together with the Special Prosecutor Drita Hajdari and heads of the associations which deal with the victims of sexual abuse during the war as well as institutional officials involved in the same issue, gathered today at the Ministry of Justice.
“In 2015 the Ministry of Justice has established a working group to prepare the Action Plan for Approach to Justice for the victims of the sexual violence during the war,” Hoxhaj said. She added that these monstrous crimes will be punished. She said that each victim from that time is a tragedy on its own, and expressed institutional readiness to facilitate the experienced tragedies of these victims.
The Special Prosecutor, Drita Hajdari discussed the legislative side of the matter, challenges and engagements on treating this problem. She also spoke about the legal difficulties to put justice in place.
The message of the participants was that crimes against humanity never get old and that more work should be done in order to punish those responsible for the crimes.
