Prosecutor Elez Blakaj was at war with 94 mentally ill officers

It was Blakaj who had found that 94 ill-mental police officials work in Kosovo Police.

This has been confirmed for Gazeta inFokus, Kosovo Special Prosecutor's spokesman Ekrem Lutfiu.

“Yes, in the case of veterans the same prosecutor has had the police case at work during investigations”, Lutfiu told inFokus.

According to him, former prosecutor Blakaj has encountered documentation of a number considered by policemen who with medical documentation (during the application for disabled war veterans) has been noted that the same (cops) had different degrees of disability “and the police case sent to the Police Inspectorate for further investigation”.

Kosovo Police Inspectorate has recommended to the police that he suspended 94 officers from “ill mental”, but in this institution they say IPK recommendation is under way of review.

Kosovo's “Police have accepted a recommendation from the Kosovo Police Inspectorate and the same is in the process of reviewing”, the Kosovo Police's response to the InFokus Gaza.

Meanwhile, the documentation it's based on The IPK to issue their recommendation for suspension is the confirmation that these members of the police have sent to Kosovo institutions to gain the status of the disabled during the process of identifying KLA veterans.

The IPK has warned Kosovo Police of the danger these members could pose, especially given that the same are equipped with firearms, writes InFokus newspaper.

But, despite that, the Kosovo Police General Directorate has refused to suspend these members by demanding final decision by Interior Affairs Minister Betush Gashi.

The latter has decided that sick mental police officers will continue working in the same positions they have held so far.

In the Kosovo police, as previously reported, there are a total of 148 members who are disabled of the war, and of them, with papers they figure they are short of 94 mental - health policemen.
