Saranda Bogujevci, survivor of a massacre of 14 Albanian women and children in Kosovo in 1999, said that a Serbian court’s decision to release one of the convicted attackers on parole was “unacceptable”.

Lutfi Dervishi, who is on trial for alleged involvement in organ-trafficking from the Medicus clinic in Kosovo, told a Pristina court that he once assisted a wanted Turkish doctor in a kidney transplant.

Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj presented an award to the founder of Serbia’s Humanitarian Law Centre, Natasa Kandic, for her role in uncovering the truth about victims killed during the Kosovo war.

Aleksandar Vucic has undertaken a frenetic diplomatic offensive lately – pressing Serbia’s case in its worsening feud with Kosovo on a range of world leaders.

The presidents of Kosovo and Serbia are to restart the stalled negotiation process between the two governments in Brussels on Friday, almost seven months after they last met.
