The defence of former KLA leaders is expected to be ready to hand over the final case of the trial by 22 December this year.
During the last status conference, Thaci's defence said it would take 35.5 hours for the testimony of her witnesses.
Krasniqi's defence announced that two witnesses will testify personally in court, while the other two will present written testimony, which has already been handed over to prosecutors.
Based on this planning, the judge estimated that it would take about 35 working days with five hours of daily witnessing, predicting their outcome in December.
Kadri Veselin's defence teams and Rexhep Selimi announced, meanwhile, that they will not present protective evidence. / REL/
