The president of the Kosovo Judicial Council, Nehat Idrizi, told Radio Free Europe that the Basic Court in northern Mitrovica is expected to become operational by beginning of September this year. According to Idrizi, this court will function according to Kosovo laws. He said the vacancy for recruiting staff is already open, but stressed that the employees will be mainly those who have worked so far in the so-called parallel courts. “The majority of the employees will be from Serb community, but there is a possibility in the future to have mixed structure of workers,” Idrizi said.
