Periskopi(4 years ago)
(4 years ago)Yesterday's US Department of Justice has announced that Chief Special Court Prosecutor in The Hague Jack Smith has resigned from his position to continue work in the US to investigate cases related to former US president Donald Trump. But his position in The Hague will not remain empty. Now as a fraud [...]
Smith investigated crimes allegedly committed by the Kosovo Liberation Army during and after the war, but how his departure would affect the judicial process of former KLA leaders.
Lawyer Tahir Drecaj in a pronouncement for Periscope said Jack Smith's departure will drag the process into judgment on Thaci and others.
I read it in some portals, Jack Smith after his resignation has taken over Donald Trump's US investigations, I don't know how real this is. His replacement with the other prosecutor will have an impact on the delay in the procedure, there will be procrastination of the procedure that has already been too long on Mr. Thaci and others”, Rhajaj told Periscope.
Following Jack Smith's resignation, they have also reacted by the Council for Protection of Human Rights and Freedoms, demanding that Smith be investigated for obstruction of justice in cases of detainees in The Hague.
KMDLNj through communiqué said that Jack Smith has put pressure on those arrested and defense..
“After there's never been an investigation into how these documents turned out, KMDLNI doubts that these documents were either sold with money, or that the background is political and that it has been done with Serbian authorities as if the flow of these materials was misused by Jack Smith as accelerator for the arrest of Hashim Thaci, Kadri Veselin, Jakup Krasniqi and Rexhepi. Jack Smith pressured the detainees and the defence with the statement that he and the prosecution will be willing to start the trial in September 2021, although they are not even today willing to defend an act over-built with” evidence” of Serbia's security services”, it is said among other things in the communiqué.
The response also came from OVL-KLA Chairman Faton Klinku's task manager.
Klink through a text on his Facebook account, said the chief prosecutor was sure that “has the smell of money”.
I'm reading that Chief Prosecutor Jack Smith abandons Special Court, and I'm sure that CHAlia smells like money, he wrote. /Iliriana Jylan-Periscope
