The Basic Court in Prizren has approved the request of the Special Prosecution to detain for one month Bogdan Mitrovic, suspect of war crimes committed in Sopi village. "The defendant is suspected of cooperating in committing war crimes against the civilian population on 02.04.1999, in Sopi village, where 32 unarmed civilians were killed by the Serbian armed forces, and the above mentioned defendant was among them," reads the announcement of the Basic Court in Prizren. The same communique further notes that the Court has decided on the detention measures since the defendant carries both Kosovo and Serbian citizenship, the same does not have a safe place of residence in Kosovo and he was inaccessible to the judiciary until the day of the arrest. In addition, notes the announcement, the criminal offense with which he is charged represents high risk that the defendant could leave Kosovo, to escape and be inaccessible to the judiciary.
