Chairman of the Board of the Serbian Assembly for control of the security services, the former security officer of the Yugoslav Army and member of SNS Momir Stojanovic with 16 other citizens of Gjakova/Djakovica was found on an Interpol "red" arrest warrant on suspicion that in 1999 in Kosovo he has committed crimes against civilians. The EU mission in Pristina yesterday confirmed unofficial claims of the state officials in Belgrade that the request for an arrest warrant was filed by EULEX.

The website of Interpol says that the arrest warrant was issued at the request of "judicial authority under the mandate of UNMIK", although the UN Mission in Kosovo has transferred its competences in in the field of justice to EULEX and partly to Pristina in 2008.

The warrant was issued on the basis of the indictment for crimes committed in April 1999 in the valley Caragoj (Reka Kec), built by the Basic Court in Gjakova/Djakovica, according to the Kosovo Law on Courts, the jurisdiction of the municipality of Gjakova/Djakovica, Malisheve/Malisevo and Rahovec/Orahovac. According to Vesti, 15 Serbs, one Montenegrin and Albanian are found on the wanted list, which is associated with the recent arrest of refugee from Gjakova/Djakovica, Miras Gegović in Podgorica, where the local Superior Court ruled him extradition detention for up to six months. Gegović is on the list of accused of the Gjakova/Djakovica Court. Momir Stojanovic, a native of Gjakova/Djakovica, who was from 1993 to 1996 deputy and then until 1999 and Chief of security of the Pristina Corps, said yesterday that he was proud of everything he has done in his life and that he has no intention to put himself in a position to defend himself.

Danas did not receive answers yesterday from the Serbian Interior Ministry or from the government's Office for Kosovo and Metohija, to the question whether the Interpol informed the relevant competent authorities in Belgrade about the arrest warrant and what will be undertaken. The Ministry of Justice told Danas, they would not comment on the "case".

- Belgrade made a mistake, because it did not process everything it could. Even during the formation of the ICTY was known that the most important crimes shall be tried before it, while everything else will be tried before national courts. Last year between the international community and Pristina, a unanimous consent was reached, to establish such a court and in Kosovo; not only for KLA crimes, but for all crimes committed in Kosovo. It's about more than 200 cases of war crimes, of which only 10 were mentioned in the report by Dick Marty. That is why there is so much nervousness on the both sides, especially because there the work on gathering evidence is on-going, and war crimes do not expire - told Danas, political analyst Dusan Janjic.
