Special Court without corresponding monitoring: The irregularities that fall into broadcasts

In the Special Court, irregularities have been observed in the court processes, which, according to justice experts, cannot be fully reflected through broadcasts HINAline. They point out that only physical monitoring in the hall can actually identify the approach of parties, juro behavior and eventual irregularities in the process.

In the Special Court, irregularities have been observed in judicial processes, which cannot be fully reflected with monitoring through broadcast sessions. Experts stress that only physical monitoring in the hall can realistically identify the approach of parties and irregularities in the process, monitoring that releases relevant reports later.

The irony and irony of judges, Sugist questions and irregularities, even their reactions in various forms, have been observed in the Special Court Hall along trial processes. These actions have also been responded to by the accused himself, although not all the actions of the parties are seen by the air platforms HINAline, due to the lack of adequate monitoring, while reports of international organisations that have been monitoring the processes in former war crimes plants are also lacking so far.

From the perspective of justice experts, Special Monitoring is largely done by nongovernmental organisations, even on voluntary grounds, without state support and lack of funds, including the media, so that everything can be forwarded to the courtroom, as monitoring lulls down.

IKD monitoring from its offices via electronic platform from special court premises. We're not able to see a lot of happening in the courtroom because there's a court, a prosecutor, a defense. From there it is seen through the minicaves of judges, are they independent, have they a more discriminating approach or access that only captures monitoring within the courtroom, which cannot be done only from outside”, Ehat Miftaraj said by IKD.

Even the Fund for Humanitarian Law in Kosovo, underlines that monitoring ʹonline) does not enable the creation of an objective approach of journalists, noting that the cases the Special has dealt with so far have been associated with technical problems, closed and widely edited sessions. And that violates the principle of transparency and publicity, despite the fact that the Special has been called to the demands of witnesses for identity protection.

And physical fragility differs from monitoring "online," because the presence in the hall also featured gestures, the mimics of each side in procedure. There have also been technical obstacles to the Internet from time to time, and with physical presence, these kinds of obstacles do not exist. As far as creditable reports of organisations are concerned, so far we have not seen any publication that deals with all cases separately and for each case with the release of findings or recommendations for concrete institutions”, Amer Alija from FDK told RTK.

Organizations that continue to monitor online special court processes warn they will come up with comprehensive reports, as far as they have been able to convey. Meanwhile, there are no reports from reliable international organisations that monitor judicial processes that include special irregularities.
