Sentenced for the murder of Triumf Riza is invited to testify in the retrial against Enver Sekirras.

This following the defense proposal of accused Enver Sekiraqa, Kosovar lawyer Kelmendi, who said hearing the convicted Berisha, argues with the fact that now, according to her, we have a new jury and his testimony would contribute to the correct clarification of this criminal case.

Therefore, the chairman of the court, Judge Shashivar Hoti, made the decision that the next hearing in this retrial would be heard in quality of witnesses Arben Berisha and the other best man Abdullah, the latter recommended by the Court of Appeals, following the return of the case for retrial.

Judge Hoti stated that on February 28th of this year, he had accepted a parachute from the special prosecutor, Hakki Gecaj, through which the prosecution was announced from the hearing of Burim Osmani witnesses, Blerim Gashi, Naim Rudari, Naser Borovci, Fatmir Hajriz, Musli Salihu, Bekim Rrustemi, and Andreas Hoverberg.

Such a proposal, according to prosecutor Gecaj's statement, argued that the testimony of these witnesses is not relevant to the case, which is subject to review in this retrial.

In Friday's retrial, Judge Hoti has approved the proposal of lawyer Kelmendi to read statements given in the past trial by witnesses Bujar Makiqi, Fitim Avdiu, Fjolla Morina, Kemajl Dumnica, Jarri Tonter, Dritton Hajdari, Refki Bunjaku, Astrit Dibra, Asser Gashi, Naser Ssekiraqa, Drita Mehmeti, Witness A, Ardian Grezda and Beingrim, given before EULEX judges.

While, Hoti, in this session, made a decision to refuse attorney Kelmendi's proposal, for reading statements given in the trial passed by the late witness proposed by the prosecution, Andreas Hofverberg, because according to him, this witness has no support with the object of the case and the criminal work Sekiraqa is now charged with.

The next hearings were scheduled to be held on May 14th, by 09m, where witnesses Arben Berisha and the May 23rd Beatdown Abdullah will be heard, from 09:00, with what court plans to manage material evidence in this criminal case.

Otherwise, this session started with an hour and 15 minutes late, and what Judge Hoti has announced results in as the transportation unit has had roadblocks on the road.

Otherwise, Enver Sekiraqa was sentenced on May 17th 2016 by the Pristina Constitutional Court for two criminal acts for “inciting in the conduct of serious murder” and for the “deym” with a unique sentence of 37 years in prison, while was released for criminal work “rape”.

The Court of Appeals, on October 24th of last year, had held a hearing concerning the appointment of security measures against Enver Sekirrasqas, after the same court on October 19th, in the evening hours, had released him from custody and pronounced the measure of house arrest.

For changing the security measure against him, three Appeal judges -- two of EULEX's ranks -- Elka Ermenkova and Anna Adamska-Gallant, as well as local judge Marem Memaj.

But this court, after just two days, had decided to re-enter it again, Enver Sekiraqen, and for that, a photo published on the social network was taken by friends who had visited it after being released from custody.

With this, the second-instance court had estimated that Enver Sekiraqa violated the measure of house arrest he had been assigned.

Otherwise, at the hearing of the Court of Appeals, which was held on September 6th last year, where complaints of the parties were considered, Enver Sekiraqa, had sought to be released from custody and protected in freedom.

And as a guarantee of his release, Sekiraqa had offered his fortune, including his home, establishment, and a sum of money, which he said would be collected with the help of his family.

The international prosecutor of the Appeals Prosecutor, Anca Stan, at the September 6th session of the Appeals College, had stated that besides the complaint claims, there was nothing to add, but the same had said that the demand of the defence party to exclude some of the crude evidence is wrong.

In April 2014, the Special Prosecutor of the Republic of Kosovo had filed charges against Enver Seker Seker for three criminal acts, for instigating the murder of Triumf Riza, <x0detyrim” and “raped”, where the first-degree court had declared him innocent.

The prosecution claims the incident occurred in “Swiss Casino” between Sequirah and Riza was one of the motives that led to the killing of Triumf Riza.

The incident at “Sweiss Casino” took place in December 2006, while Enver Sekiraqa and several of his associates were involved on one side, and the late Triumf Riza of Arben Selmani on the other. Arben Selmani was left in this seriously injured incident.

Triumf Riza was killed on 30 August 2007, the murder for which Arben Berisha has been sentenced to 35 years in prison, while Enver Sekiraqa to 37 years. /Betimi justice
