Periskopi(a year ago)
(a year ago)Kosovo's Institute for Justice (IKD) through a media response considers the government's response in office totally unacceptable against yesterday's act of Supreme Court of the Republic of Kosovo, with which it is determined that Administration Guide (MFPT) No.012025 for the exploitation of electronic Fiscal devices, Fiscal Systems and the Electronic Fiscal software, is illegal [...]
The IKD points out that the government's response constitutes flagrant interference in the independence of the judiciary and violation of the principle of separation of powers as the foundation of constitutional and democratic order.
“Public objection to an act of the highest instance of courts fair by executive power, not only constitutes interference in the independence of the judiciary, but is a flagrant violation of the principle of separation of powers, which is the foundation of constitutional order in a democratic state, thereby violating the integrity of the judiciary and inciting institutional distrust”, the IKD response, Express reports.
Moreover, IKD in response considers the approach of Albanian Minister Murati extremely dangerous, labeling judges of the Supreme Court by name and surname.
This approach, in addition to violating the integrity of the judicial system, poses a danger to the individual security of judges named”, the IKD points out.
The incumbent government's <x0 responses and its other members constitute unnecessary pressure on the judiciary, which violates institutional independence and efforts to build impartial justice. IKD recalls that trust in the judicial system is built with respect to its decisions, not public delegation by political officials. The Supreme Court's statement yesterday sets an important precedent for halting political interference in administrative decision making and establishing a new standard in respecting the principle of the division of powers in practice”, the communique adds.
The IKD reports that it estimates the Supreme Court has rightly ruled that the extraction of Administrative Guidance by a person who simultaneously exercises the office of deputy and minister is illegal and violates constitutional provisions. Thus, administrative instruction has been declared illegal and abolished, as it was undertaken by an official without a valid mandate and in clear functional incompatibility.
The IKD invites all institutional representatives to respect the integrity of judicial decisions and to refrain from any action or declaration aimed at lowering the authority of the courts. Only through an independent and functional judiciary can legal security and rule of law be guaranteed.
