Prizren's Constitutional Court had assigned the house arrest measure for a month, but the defence has sought his release from arrest.

This request was rejected by the Court of Appeals.

“Foundation Court in Prizren, the General Department, the State Prosecutor's Procedure Judge, has refused the State Prosecutor's request, on the appointment of the detention move against two (2) defendants, and has taken office, for the appointment of house arrest measures against defendants: F.D. (I), due to suspicion based on having committed the criminal acts: attacks by Article 181 par.1 of the KP, and for criminal work there is an 181st party, P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P., F.P. suspects, F.H.I.H.), to suspect, as a reason for allegedly carried out of the attack has been carried out of 181.C.P.E.E.

It points out that the house arrest measure has been scheduled for a month, which will be calculated from the time of the 09.02.2025 arrest, and that it can last until 09.03.2025.

The defendants do not dare to leave the settlement without permission from the Court, and were forbidden to contact the people they do not live with or are not dependent on. If defendants violate the measure of house arrest, the same would be appointed detention measures”, the communique said.

The fact is that this measure will be monitored by the Prizren Police Station, “which, even without the tribunal's request at any time, can verify the implementation of the house arrest measure and inform the Court of any possible violation of the” measure.

At the same time, it has been stressed that the judge of the preliminary procedure following the hearing hearing of the security measure and hearing of the parties' statements, and based on evidence on the subject's paperwork, has found that the State Prosecutor's request for the detention assignment is unfounded, and has appointed the measure of house arrest.

From tops, the Court has concluded that in concrete cases the appointment of house arrest, at this stage of procedure for defendants is necessary and reasonable”, the communique of the Prizren Foundation Court concludes. /insander/
