Dear citizens,

Tonight we accepted the announcement by the Constitutional Court concerning the August 61/20 case.

According to this report, the Constitutional Court has ruled that the verdicts “for prevention, combating and eliminating the infectious disease COVID-19” in the Prizren municipality, Dragas and Istog, are in line with the Constitution, with the exception of the relevant points of the device that determines administrative objections, while the decision to declare <x2zone “quarantine” in Prizren's municipality declared in opposition to the constitution.

The court unanimously found that in the release of the upper locations, the Ministry of Health has acted in accordance with the authorizations established through Law No. 02/ L-109 for the Fight and Prevention of Influencing Diseases, and subsequently “interventions” on the right of freedom of movement of Prizren's municipalities, Dragas and Istog, through the upper points, were “defined in law”. The court also found that the same follow a legitimate “ ”, that of protecting “public health”, respectively, as defined in Article 2 of Protocol No. 4 of KEDNJ; are proportional in relation to “legitimate target” followed; and there are “necessary in a democratic society”.

However, the Court on the other side of the vote has ruled that the decision to deploy Prizren's municipality to the quarantine area is not in line with the Constitution since “karantin” under Law No.02/ The L-109 for Combating and Prevention of Influencing Diseases can be ordered by the Ministry of Health, after recommending the IKSHPK, only for the physical persons who prove or allegedly have been in direct contact with sick persons or suspected of infectious diseases.

We want to clarify three things tonight:

1. All the measures we've taken come as a direct recommendation of the IKSHPK. I The KSHPK has considered Prizren to be considered infected or directly endangered by the spread of COVID-19 infection.

2. Our work has become almost impossible at this time when the ongoing opposition has refused to co-operate in relation to legislative initiatives.

3. However, we remain committed to respecting the Constitutional Court's decisions, but with just as much commitment we act for respecting right in life which is absolute right.

We will all be well organized together for public health protection procedures.

Together we're going through this bitter pandemic phase.

Thank you for all those engaged in this battle, but also for all the Constitutional Court officials who are in charge of duty in these difficult days.
