This is the third session to be held since their arrest.
Meanwhile, the Prosecutor's Office specialised through a pre-procedure to the judge of the third conference has again demanded that the beginning of the trial against Hashim Thaci, Kadri Veselini, Rexhep Selimi and Jakup Krasniqi be in September 2021.
The Specialised Prosecutor's Office has stressed that it has adopted in the direction of the discovery of evidence, a way that will allow the trial to begin in September 2021”, says at the 19th point of this letter.
According to them, the timetable allows for many months for defence preparation and preliminary investigation into a clearly defined issue.
The specified “Time is given many months for defence preparation for a clearly defined issue, while recognising the fundamental interests of victims and witnesses and justice, in reducing risks of natural intervention and intimidation in a protracted” trial, the letter of the prosecutor's office specialised to the court is said.
In the same letter to the Specialised Prosecutor's Office stresses that “the review has repeatedly stressed that determining a short deadline is an attempt to undermine a fair trial, claiming the trial cannot begin for an 18-month minimum from the beginning of 2021, and possibly longer”.
