(4 years ago)Kadri Veselini's lawyer, Ben Emmerson today during the hearing at The Hague, has mentioned counterfeiting by the Russian and Serbian secret services. I want to say the following requests: The first to push the decision on the 103rd rule materials involving the counterfeit services of intelligence [...]
I want to say the following requests: The first to push for the decision on the 103rd rule materials dealing with the counterfeit services of Serbia's intelligence in light of issues that were raised at the private hearing, and in this request will include the counterfeitings not only of Serbia's services, but also of Russia”, he said.
After this sentence, and before this was public, the session was completely private and edited.
Rexhep Selimi's lawyer, David Young, has declared today during the hearing in The Hague that there are serious violations in excusing materials, Periscopi broadcasts.
According to him, the material for it sets out the revision of the decision on temporary freedom.
There are serious violations in these materials and the court can't be silent. According to the 103rd rule, it's very important because it's about guilt or innocence. It's extenuating material so we support it because these issues can lead to reviewing the decision on temporary freedom, he said.
Another issue raised by Thaci's lawyer, Gregory Keohe, is that of displacement of witnesses, that is, restoring the settlement.
Keohe has voiced doubts that there may be a change of statements when witnesses move.
I don't know exactly how to fix this, except one sanction. There are documents that have not been resolved and they continue to surrender. The judge is aware of the SPS history and we don't need to waste time. Example, restoring witnesses to other countries. We know SPS has restored witnesses. Mr. Smith has told diplomats there are 37 requests for witness restoration. Others have sought restoration. What was offered to them. We in Kenya's judgments have seen changes of witness statements at the moment of shift. We've received no information on the transfer of witness restoration. We don't know how many they wanted to move. We should have this information. We only know that Mr. Smith has told foreign diplomats that there are such requests”, he said. / P ERISCOPI/
