Staying of the '%vak' had the Kosovo government for the arrest of Kosovo, Tefik Mustafa on Serbia's side. He is currently being held in Serbia's prison for three days, while the Government of Kosovo received no public response. Kosovo's Foreign Ministry has considered the ban on Mustafa as [...]

“The response of institutions has been automatic, like coral songs, after arrests occurred. Especially for these failures is the MPJD, which has legal and moral responsibility to deal seriously with these cases”, it is said in the public response of KMDLNJ.

For that, so. Council for Protection of Human Rights and Freedoms (KMDLNJ) in Kosovo has criticised on Monday's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Kosovo Diaspora (MPJD) for the way the response to the arrest of a Kosovo citizen at the Kosovo border crossing with Serbia, Merdara.

Former Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs Valdet Hoxha said the same.

He for Periscope has said that Kosovo institutions should set in motion the diplomatic mechanism to increase international pressure on Serbia, while their response has seen it as an NGO.

This thinking and behavior contrary to any legal rating and in open opposition to all international conventions in protecting human rights, should be highlighted by Kosovo institutions with active actions, aimed at increasing international pressure on Serbia for the release of innocent Albanian citizens and for halting this Serb hegemonist policy”, he has said of Periscope.

But that can also be difficult.

The former deputy minister does not dismiss the possibility that the government, due to its failure to co-ordinate, has also damaged international support in such cases.

Tefiq Mustafa was arrested on 1 June by Serbian authorities, under suspicion of “war crimes”.

In the past three years, several Kosovo citizens have been arrested in Serbia, as it has been said, allegations that they committed crimes during the war in Kosovo in 1998-99.

On 17 April of this year, Serbian authorities have arrested the other Kosovo citizen, Sadik Durak, under the same suspicion, at one of the Kosovo-Serbia border crossings.

His family has rejected the accusations, saying that Duraku lived in England at that time, along with his family. /Periscopi
