The Court of Appeals in Priština has rejected an appeal filed against a decision to keep Oliver Ivanović in prison, his party, GI SDP, announced on Thursday.

"This shows that Kosovo courts are not interested in the rights of the accused, or in what the appeal said, because they already have their decision."
