Juice: I haven't had the chance to meet KLA members during the war

This witness statement was made by answering Hashim Thaci's defence questions through the lawyer, Sophie Menegon.

“During the war I have not had the destiny of meeting any of the members of the General Staff”, said Dzitia, reports “Justice Trust“.

The Witness said that he had also stated in the book that this book represents only his opinion of events in the Lappi Operative Zone and that this opinion is not a final word.

Before the questioning of the Menego lawyer began, prosecutor Sylvia Déskoli, who focused on the witness's book that described the visit of representatives of the KLA General Staff on 18 August-20 August 1998, was questioned.

In the book, the witness had said the delegation was in composition with Hashim Thaci, Rexhep Selimin, Jakup Krasniqi and Bislim Office as well as they were received by Commander Remi, accompanied by Fatmir Humol, Hyzri Talla, Latif Gashi, Kadri Kastti, Nuredin Ibishi and Saber Kicmar.

It's important to point out that in the Llap Operative Zone, I called it officialism for the fact that on July 18th, Commander Rrustem Mustafa had already appointed these structures, these personalities to the most responsible position. On July 18, these personalities were appointed, so they were only formalized during the visit. Commander Remi announced the general staff delegation with decisions he had made earlier. So this visit regardless of what I called official and official, all those appointments that Commander Rrustem Mustafa had earlier approved or approved by this delegation, and I certainly have the potential of the decisions that have been made. I have in reference the interviews I did with the commander, but also the other literature I've used at the time that was like reference”, the witness said away.

The Witness also showed where he supported the information in his book.

I've relied on the data I've received from the director of the Lap Operative Zone”.

The prosecutor then presented the book of Jakup Krasniqi to the witness, speaking on this visit to the General Staff delegation in the Lapi Operative Zone.

Quoting, DéASkoli said that the book said that the departure of this delegation was intended to see the KLA being prepared, appointments of the command framework were made and to announce with war flows on the ground.

The Witness said that he read the book in question, and he was one of the main references to general aspects. According to him, Jakup Krasniqi's book agrees with what he is saying in the courtroom.

During her questions, prosecutor DÉscoli asked the witness about certain codes of individuals who had only been described in his book.

I don't know any numbers, but as names I remember. I don't know any others. I don't know. I may know them, but as nicknames I don't know”, the witness said.

With the code "Profa-20) the witness said he was commander of Brigade 152, Shaban Shala and that Asia was 30.

“E know after the war (Aziz) in the Kosovo Security Force as long as it has been and more I have no information about them. I don't know, but during the book's preparation, I've seen what the task is after (during the war). I have it in my book when it's the deputy commander of Brigade 152<18x1>, the witness said.

Scender Jutilia said Naim Kadriun did not know him during the war. For Muhamet Latifi, the witness confirmed that this is the kind of civil defense commander who has helped mobilise those who wanted to be locked in the KLA.
