Lawyer Skender Musa has given his comments on the issue of extending the indictment by the Specialized Prosecutor against the leaders of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) who are being tried by the Special Court.

Musa said that the indictment should always be complete and not edited because, otherwise, it is a violation of the rights of detainees.

Musa explained how the European criminal codes were applied in the former Yugoslavia, where according to these codes, the defendant must be provided with all the case file, before the start of the trial.

According to the lawyer, when the accused states that he did not understand the indictment, the Court cannot be called upon to have been the full statement of the accused regarding the indictment, because this is a legal condition.

"The accused must understand the indictment even if the latter states that he does not understand the indictment due to the editing, then the court must invite the prosecution of the case to clarify the indictment, so that the defendant has a clear and then to be declared ", said Musa.

Speaking about the expansion of indictments against former KLA leaders, Musa says that after June 1999, UNMIK had political power, while KFOR took care of security.

"After this date, the KLA did not have any competence based on the Kumanovo Agreement.

Whether it is murder or kidnapping, it cannot be considered a war crime.

No murder committed after June 1999, ie after the end of the war, can be considered a war crime or a crime against humanity, but an ordinary murder.

"It can be considered a serious murder, but the perpetrator of this crime must be found exactly."

However, the lawyer says that the Special Court can try the post-war murders, but according to him, those

trials
