There is still no set date when the Assembly will convene to change the constitution to enable the establishment of a special court that will investigate allegations of war crimes and organ trafficking in Kosovo. According to the Minister of Justice, Hajredin Kuci, the Assembly session on the issue will depend on the successful conclusion of negotiations between the EU and the court’s host country, the Netherlands.

The EU Special Investigative Task Force (SITF) spokesperson, Joao Sousa, did not wish to comment on Kuci’s statement. “It would in inappropriate to comment on statements made by others. On our part, we can only say that we encourage all parties involved to continue undertaking necessary steps for putting in place the legal framework for setting up the special court as soon as possible”, Sousa told Indeksonline.
