Contrary to defence statements, the panel finds that surrender is not a preamble or evidence directed to the panel under this rule. The discovery of evidence has not been communicated to the court for purposes of compliance, but as announcement of the opposite side, participants and panel”, says Charles Smith's decision.
“Paneli also doesn't see any merit in the defence argument that, with the case closed, the legal interest of the panel in monitoring intelligence obligations, as defined in the legal framework decision, no longer applies to”.
Hashim Thaci's defence considered the materials delivered weeks after the case's closure, unfair and unacceptable.
