Changes to Criminal Procedure Code Resolving Trial in Lack of War Crimes

The Commission for Legislation, Mandate, Imunite, Framework Rule and supervision of the Anti-Corruption Agency has voted in favour of the Justice Ministry's request (MD) to meet the change of the Penal Procedure Code for trial in absentia for war crimes.

While Serbian List deputy Ljubinko Kradzic was not present at the vote.

However, members of the Commission from the opposition ranks demanded that it not be rushed, despite in principle supporting the MD initiative.

Adnan Rrustemi, from the Vetevendosje Movement, has stated that it is important that the trial process in the first place and justice is established.

I insist that the Commission involves itself in the content work of monitoring and monitoring to improve the specific laws where they have remained. Forming a working group that will bring about the regulations of the Parliament to draft the first draft. The responsibility of war crimes in Kosovo has never been adequately addressed, and for me it is important that the trial process in the absence starts as soon as possible, and each of us understands the change of this law, however technical it seems to be,”, he said.

Meanwhile, MP Blerta Deliu-Codra has described the ad-hoc approach to the issue, saying accelerated approach is not appropriate.

Deliu has demanded that civil society be involved in this process.

“As for Democracy Plus, it's a good idea because we've seen with the attempt you've made on the civil choice law, not only did democracy +, but all civil societies. This approach to ad-hoc change is non-professional and not so beautiful when we talk about serious issues. Time is proving you were wrong and urgently we have the change outside regular procedures”, she said.

While Driton Selmanaj from the Democratic League of Kosovo said such emergencies are not being achieved to draft relevant laws.

AAK MP Besnik Tahiri said dealing with laws requires full commitment, until he added that there should be no surprising situations like the Law for Elections.
