Haradinaj’s lawyer dismisses reports his client is wanted by special court (Telegrafi)
The lawyer for AAK leader Ramush Haradinaj, Arianit Koci, responded to the statements of the Serbian war crimes prosecutor Milan Petrovic that his client will be handed over to the specialist chambers by calling them untrue and speculations. Koci recalled the statement of the special court spokesperson, Avis Benes, earlier in the month saying that Haradinaj was not detained in France on the mandate of the Kosovo Specialist Chambers. “We also heard from Ms. Benes today that the first task of the president of this court, Ekaterina Trandafilova, will be to prepare a plenary session for the judges. This means the special court has not appointed judges yet,” Koci said. “Serbia is delaying the process by not submitting [extradition’ request and complementary documents,” Koci added.
