Special, Judge Smith complains: There's no point in editing, finding solutions for private sessions.

Judges, prosecutors and lawyers have debated concerns about holding almost completely closed hearings for the public.

As the debate began on this, Chief Judge Charles Smith said that numerous editorials and private sessions no longer make any sense.

Sometimes the editing is over, there are sentences that are very difficult to read, all black, black, black, has to go to black, so that “black “, they don't mean anything to”, he said before the prosecution. “For me, the main thing is that before they take the next witness to give the testimony, all the editings will be revised and then see how many public and private sessions we can have, and this is one aspect that should be addressed”.

The trial against Hashim Thaci, Kadri Veselini, Rexhep Selimi and Jakup Krasniqi has started on 3 April, and only 10 witnesses have been heard so far, and those almost overall in private sessions.

This has raised heavy public criticism. The specialist has been criticised earlier for closing up in front of the defence public, as many of its evidence has been released.
