IKD shows what is the main reason for stalling judicial processes in Kosovo

Kosovo's Institute for Justice (IKD) states that the Criminal Divisions of General Foundations Departments continue to face large numbers of outstanding substances, which are carried year after year, adding that this number of subjects is one of the main reasons for procrastinating judicial cases in the judicial system [...]
This was made known by the IKD in the published “General Crime in Kosovo report 2019”, which is supported by the US State Department . . . . The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Implementation Issues (INL) and NED. This report is the result of direct monitoring of the IKD-monitored divisions of the Criminal Divisions in the System of Justice, including 3,426 monitoring court sessions, with a total of 2,371 cases, broadcast the Kosovo Clan.
However, unlike the previous years, during 2019 the criminal divisions of the Constitutional Courts have been reinforced by 18 new judges, which reinforcement has also contributed to lowering the number of outstandings at the end of the reporting period. In contrast to the year 2018, when 40,18 subjects remained unresolved, at the end of 2019 this number was reduced to 6,861 subjects, to 33,257 subjects respectively. But despite this increase, expressed on average the number of materials resolved in relation to the number of judges, criminal division judges during 2019 have solved courses less than in the year 2018”, the IKD report said.
As for penal policy in criminal divisions, the most pronounced sentence is fine punishment, amounting to 49.39% of the sentences, followed by parole to 40.26% of the cases, while in only 6.64% of cases has been convicted of effective prison sentences. 3.72% of the matter has been solved differently.
