Health problems, Thaci missing even at progress conference

It was announced Wednesday by prosecutor Matt Halling at the conference on the progress of the case in this case.

April “4th is the last projected date. We're not calling any witnesses after this date. Within April 15th, we will file the latest written motions, non-fiction evidence. This is the date we plan. We won't have any more witnesses after April 4,”, Halling said.

And prosecutor James Pace announced that they have two witnesses to testify for next week and that they are W4745 and W2766.

He said they have a witness for March to call him. And, he added, they will provide updates to other witnesses scheduled for March as soon as they have updates themselves.

The only confirmed witness for the March bloc is witness 04403<18x1>, he said, adding that they plan to call more witnesses but that they have not yet confirmed because of problems with their security, co-operation with third states, etc.

A request under the 153 rule that envisions accepting testimony from written witnesses, the prosecutor said they would hand it over within this week, including four witnesses, two of whom opposed the defence.

Pace said there are only 20 witnesses left that some of them will be required to be handled according to Rule 153, 155 and so on.

The three accused are present in the courtroom via video connection, while Thaci is not present at all yesterday for health reasons.

Initially, Rexhep Selimi was key to the session, announcing there are problems with translating into Albanian.

I'm sorry to interrupt, but we don't have the Albanian” translation, Selimi said.

As a result, Charles Smith III told him that he would resolve the case, which happened.
