Today, those arrested for terrorism appear before the court, which can be condemned if convicted

One of those arrested on Sunday, October 10th, is Ardian Djurovic of Peja.

Radio Free Europe has managed to talk to Ardian's father, Remember Qerin, who has denied that his son was involved in some act or planning terrorist acts.

There is no real thing there, says Qerkini, who lives in Germany.

Kerin said he does not recognise any of the other persons arrested in the action, in which his son was arrested on October 10th.

Kerin says he has been pleased with his son, who he says has practiced religion like any other Muslim.

It holds religion like everyone else. You work, you come home and there's nothing I can say. You know, God, the boy's been pretty good working and becoming a parent”, says Qerkini.

He has flatly denied that his son had been a supporter of an extremist group.

In the Kosovo Special Prosecutor's Community, it was said that during the raids a fear was found in one of the suspect's homes, but Kujtim Qerkeyni says he had bought that fear last year in Germany to take pictures at family parties.

And that fears, he said, was found in his home in the town of Peja during the raids Kosovo Police conducted.

I bought a small 80-euro drop to take photographs in Germany a year ago. I have been in the summer (in Kosovo) and I have married my daughter and taken her there to take pictures, and in the papers she writes that they have found fear and that fear is as fisty. That's a toy. What more do you want me to say?

The site says that nothing else has been confiscated in his home in Pec.

How punished can they be if convicted?
