Special says Mustafa violated judicial order by not declaring his property

A 2024 decision has been made public in Kosovo Specialised Chambers ( D3SK) in The Hague, indicating that Salih Mustafa had refused to meet the form that envisioned his statement of property, the process included in the implementation of the order he had been ordered to undo.

The decision, which claimed Mustafa had violated judicial order by refusing to complete this form, was taken on December 16, 2024, as it became public on July 15th 2025, reports “Justice Vow “.

“Only Judge: It's Mr. President. Mustafa has violated an earlier court order by refusing to complete the vehicle statement formula”, the decision said.

In addition, it was found there that Mustafa has repeatedly refused to take action to meet his obligations to the victims and has not helped identify his property.

“COMM It seems that Mr. Mustafa has repeatedly refused to take action to meet his obligations to the victims and has not helped identify the” assets, the decision said.

A physical or legal person (not specified) has been ordered to hand over documents required within 30 days.

While the comprehensive report concerning Mustafa's wealth was set to surrender by February 28th 2025.

After being announced by the administration that Mustafa had failed to complete the form, the sole Judge had ordered that he fulfil this form late on October 7, 2024, but he had not done so, thus violating a judicial order.

“... Mustafa to complete the Form of the Declaration of Tools without delay and later Monday, October 7, 2024. Mr. Mustafa did not do so, violating the judicial order. That was the second time Mr. Mustafa was able to co-operate in implementing the Order for Rewards and again did not make it”, the decision said.

Although Mustafa had been informed of the way voluntary payment was paid, he had not responded to announce whether he intends to pay.

Moreover, in the decision on paying compensation, the only judge ordered the recorder to inform Mustafa of ways of voluntary payment. Although informed, it says he has not responded if he intends to pay.

The only judge finds that Mr. Mustafa has repeatedly refused to take any action in accordance with his obligations and has not provided assistance to identify assets for the purposes of executing the Order for Payback”, the decision said.

Afterward, the administration had begun an independent assessment of Mustafa's wealth, where it had demanded a release of orders to the physical/juridical person to assist in the process.

The only judge remembers that, in accordance with Article 53 of the Law and Rules 200 and 202, all subjects and persons in Kosovo should co-operate without delay. Orders to obtain documents and data are authorised under law”, the decision says.

In addition, the decision reportedly found that the required information was needed to determine the status of Mustafa's property, which did not violate its fundamental rights. Thus, the overall report on the assessment of property for surrender was postponed from December 2024 to February 28th 2025.

Constitutional Court of Specialised Chambers of Kosovo ( The DPSK, has rejected Salih Mustaf's recent complaint, which has claimed that the 15-year prison sentence against him violates the Kosovo Constitution.

According to Mustafa, his 15-year sentence for unlawful murder as a war crime violates Article 33 (3) of the Constitution of Kosovo, and that sentence was unproportional in relation to criminal acts.

On July 9, 2025, the Court found the demand unacceptable. In the decision, it has been found Mustafa has failed to prove that the conviction pronounced against him constituted violations of fundamental rights.

In his complaint handed down on April 24th 2025, Mustafa had said that constitutional rights guaranteed under Article 33 (3) of the Kosovo Constitution, which stipulates that the penalty rate must be proportional to criminal work.

Mustafa claimed that Apeli when he pronounced the new sentence has violated this provision, which aims to protect the accused and that the Supreme subsequently did not correct this mistake, but rejected the defence rejection.

According to him, the Supreme has not determined any standards of punishment, nor can a sentence be considered unproportional.

Mustafa's defense had said the Constitution should interpret this article, use it and also give clear instructions regarding its interpretation, since there is no such thing so far.

By contrast, Mustafa had made another complaint in the Constitution for violating his fundamental and constitutional rights during his trial at the Foundation and Appeals, about what decision in this case was taken on April 17th 2025.

According to the ruling, the Constitution has not listed actual or legal errors in the reasoning of lower courts, and therefore Mustaf's complaint was declared unacceptable.

The act against Mustafa in the first instance was announced on December 16th 2022, with which Mustafa has been sentenced to 26 years in prison.

While on April 6, 2023, Salih Mustafa was ordered to pay 207 thousand euros for the damage to the victims. Later, he had submitted 51 points to the Court of Appeals' panel against the punitive decision of the Special Foundation to him.

The Special Appeal, on December 14, 2023, has pronounced a case against Salih Mustaf, with whom he sentenced him to a unique sentence of 22 years in prison for war crimes.

According to DPS, Salih Mustafa had applied for protection of legitimacy in the Supreme, and the decision on this requirement was taken on 29 July 2024.

In his request for protection of legitimacy, Mr. Mustafa raised five points, which related to the translation of the Appeals Act into Albanian, his guilty plea for murder as a war crime, as well as the measure of sentence”, said at the DSF report.

The request for protection of legitimacy, Mustafa, had handed over on March 13th 2024 with whom he had demanded the Supreme Court of TSK to modify first and second degree judgments, canceling the sentences for arbitrary ban, torture and murder, thus declaring him innocent or completely canceling his convictions and turning the case into a retrial.

Mustafa has put forward five points, through which he has rejected Appeal's decision, with which he was sentenced to 22 years in prison. Mustafa's request had been accepted in part, so the Supreme One had restored the case to Apel to establish a new sentence on the accused.

In reasoning with the court, the head of the Appeals panel, Michele Picard, said that the first degree court had made an outstanding mistake in condemning Salih Mustaf. She also added that a sentence rated for 22 years in prison, even counting the past time in custody, reflects the overall criminal activity of Mustafa.

And on September 10, 2024, The Hague's Court of Appeals has decided to change the sentence from 22 to 15 years in prison for Salih Mustaf after the Supreme returned the case to that degree. Again, Cal complained to the Supremee about Apel's second decision, but the third scale gave him the sentence.

Otherwise, the indictment against Mustafa was confirmed on June 12, 2020. /Periscope/
