The Association of Families of the Kidnapped and Murdered in Kosovo and Metohija (KiM) said on Friday that it will press charges before the domestic and international courts against the persons responsible for the crimes against Serbs and non-Albanians in Kosovo before and after 1999.

The victims' families have solid evidence of crimes committed by “leaders of the terrorist Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) who today take leading positions within their parties and the Albanian parliament in KiM,” states the release.

"Implementation of the Brussels agreement related to the normalization of relations between Belgrade and Pristina cannot solve all problems," said British Ambassador in Belgrade, Denis Keefe, at the International Conference on the Role of Civil Society in normalization of relations between Belgrade and Pristina.

Keefe expressed hope that the cooperation between Belgrade and Pristina will also be improved in other fields. "Contribution of civil society is very important, in addition to economics, politics and cooperation at the national level," said Keefe.

Politically, establishment of the community of Serb municipalities in Kosovo is an obligation under the Brussels Agreement and it is advocated by Belgrade and the representatives of the Srpska list in the province, the head of the Serbian government Office for Kosovo-Metohija, Marko Djuric, said Wednesday.

The Brussels Agreement is not a "buffet" where everyone can take what suits them, Djuric said at a conference on respect of European human rights conventions in Kosovo, organised by the Strasbourg House of Justice.

The Community/Association of Serbian municipalities is a form of association and cannot be a non-governmental organization, Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic said in Pristina on Wednesday.

The only thing that the Pristina government has always stressed as important is that the Serbs in Kosovo cannot be organized in a way similar to that of Republika Srpska (the Serb entity in Bosnia-Herzegovina), Dacic told reporters after the end of an informal ministerial conference on infrastructure projects in the Western Balkans in Pristina.

High Representative of the European Union, Federica Mogherini on Thursday will be in Pristina and on Friday in Belgrade. She will encourage dialogue between the two sides in a meeting with the heads of government of Serbia and Kosovo, and see how to overcome the stalemate over the statute of the Association/Community of Serbian municipalities.

Two buses that were transporting Serbs pupils were stopped in Gjilan/Gnjilane and excluded from the traffic, while the pupils were left on the road.

Assistant director of the Serbian Government Office for Kosovo and Metohija, Sladjana Markovic has stated that the pupils, whose freedom of movement is already endangered, now have been deprived from their right to safety and education.

The inspection handed the decision on the exclusion from traffic to the bus drivers, written in the Albanian language.

Gracanica Mayor, Vladeta Kostic said that the recent first joint meeting of municipalities with Serbian majority practically raised the issue of establishing the Association/Community of Serbian municipalities (ZSO) and that the initiative is now raised to a higher political level.

Kostic said that in formal legal terms, the process of creating the ZSO has not started yet, because the legal requirements are not met, nor the statute of the Community was adopted.

The Council of Europe has not yet received a formal request for the admission of Kosovo despite announcements from both Pristina and Belgrade that Kosovo is rapidly preparing to apply for membership, was said from the office of the Secretary-General of that pan-European organization. 

A 29-year-old doctor was murdered in her office late on Monday in the local healthcare center in Zubin Potok, a town in northern Kosovo.

The woman, Dusanka Andrejevic, was brought to the hospital in North Mitrovica with no vital signs, and attempts to resuscitate her failed, head of the Healthcare Center in Mitrovica Milan Ivanovic told Tanjug.

He explained that the doctor received bullet wounds to her large blood vessels and quickly bled to death.

The Deputy Head of UNMIK, Jennifer Brush said today that Kosovo without a specific status is not good for the people who live in it, whether Albanians are in question or non-Albanians.

Brush said in an interview in the program "Slobodni Srpski" (Free Serbian), that she hoped that the dialogue in Brussels would help to come to the normalization of relations between Serbia and Kosovo in order to live normally.
