Once again, in Albanian the ambassador of Great Britain, Ruairi O'Connell, has expressed his despair.
This time, with the results presented to the Kosovo Institute for Justice, from one-year monitoring of the work of courts and prosecutors in corruption cases.
The results of the courts in condemning corrupt acts involving senior officials have been minimal in the past three years.
The firm form bias has only received a senior official: the former head of Klokot, Srecko Spasac, and his sentence has been conditional.
And that was the reason for Ambassador O'Connell's despair.
Nehat Idrizi, chairman of the Judiciary Council, has said that, despite this, the fight against corruption must be continuous.
According to Supreme Court Chairman Enver Peci, however, the justice organs are not coordinated.
Otherwise, in the report published by the IKD, it is known that in the first nine months of this year, a total of 111 convictions have been declared in the country's courts, with a total of 232 persons involved, 204 of them charged with corruption-related acts.
98 of them have been convicted, while 106 have been acquitted.
