Haradinaj: Albania, Croatia, Turkey vouch for Hashim Thaci's release other than Kosovo

The final release of Nasim Haradinaj and Hysni Gucatit from the Special Court has caused many new details to be made public regarding procedures in The Hague.

At a time when Hashim Thaci and other KLA leaders were not allowed home arrest or protection in freedom in any way, a move was left open.

The guarantee of release in a third country, if the same states guarantee strict conditions for one of the accused.

Nasim Haradinaj in several interviews over the past two days has announced the names of three states that guaranteed for the release of Hashim Thaci from the Special Court.

According to Haradinaj, these three states were: Albania, Turkey and Croatia.

“State has not fulfilled its civic and constitutional duty to its citizen in The Hague. Not for prisoner Hashim, Nasim, for a criminal prisoner or even a terrorist. He must offer all guarantees, including temporary release of protection on the loose. No simple guarantee is that they're going to say you're going to leave without a father, maybe you were protecting yourself in freedom, and you know what the biggest shame is: you've offered three other countries, one right. It is binding on protecting all Albanians, but it also guaranteed Croatia and Turkey for Hashim. Kosovo doesn't, neither then today”, Haradinaj has said.

Despite guarantees, Hashim Thaci was not approved on bail in either of these states.

This after the trial panel at The Hague found that securing the procedures would be appropriate, only with Thaci at the Pre-trial Centre.

However, one of the judges had not agreed. Kai Ambos, German judge, had said that if there are third states giving clear guarantees, parole could be considered.

“A third state that can receive (accept) and, if necessary, monitor a suspect or an accused. The state can submit a significant, perhaps crucial offer within the framework of parole. While this offer was highly unclear, as it rightly states in the decision, and, in any case, a commitment expressed by the third state would be required, such an offer could be more precise and concrete in future cases, and the panel's logic to this decision could be a strong argument in favour of parole. Of course, the concrete decision is always specific for each case, and the Third State offer does not guarantee that parole will be granted. Here, again, I just want to raise awareness, that is, that such an offer, if made concrete and supported by guarantees, including from the current Third State, can shift balance in favour of parole and therefore should be considered seriously by the Judge or competent College”, It was said in Kay Ambo's vision.

Even in this case, however, Ambos was alone. He was detained by other juro members, and Thaci and others were denied the pleas for release from custody.

In Kosovo, even the fact that Ambos, in other complaints, was not appointed to court courts of the Court of Appeals, had been widely discussed. For several times, Kai Ambos was not part of the panels.

However, the head of the Special Court had flatly denied that Ambos ' departure involved his attitude about Thaci's release.

“Pict first we are the court that is based on rule of law. The law states that judges will be appointed and supervised according to Article 62 of the Law and Constitution. Judges are appointed through a very strict process of filtering. Ahead of an independent panel consisting of three members, two high-profile international judges and great expertise, and a well-known lawyer. Budgeting, monitoring, location regulated with Law”,The Special Court chief said.

Judge Kai Ambos is from Germany, and has sometimes been honored with gratitude there.

Hysni Gucati's Nasim Haradinaj in these interviews, have expressed disappointment with treatment by Kosovo institutions
