The Humanitarian Law Center’s (FHP) in Belgrade and Kosovo want the Kosovo government to look into allegations recently made by Human Rights Watch (HRW). HRW recently stated that after June 1999, abducted Serbs were held captive in concentration camps in Albania, and that some had their organs extracted, to be sold allegedly on the black market. NGO demands probe into KLA organ trafficking FHP also called on UNMIK to publish a report on a judicial investigation conducted in Albania in February 2004 relating to the inquiry into the organ harvesting scandal. “The fact that the Serbian government is still to uncover the truth about the fate of missing Albanians does not excuse the Kosovo government’s silence,” FHP stated. FHP President Natasa Kandic added that the claims of former Hague Tribunal Chief Prosecutor Carla Del Ponte regarding the fate of kidnapped Serbs were very serious. Those claims uncover the little-known, brutal side of the fate of kidnapped Serbs in Kosovo and is a damning indictment of UNMIK, in whose presence these murders and abductions occurred, with public buildings being turned into secret prisons for Serbs, Roma and Albanians who “cooperated” with the Serbs. Once Kosovo’s independence was recognized, FHP states, the Pristina government assumed a special obligation to show its respect for the rule of law, and should take responsibility for the crimes that took place during the conflicts in the province. “The crimes against Serbs cannot be absolved by the mass graves in Serbia and the crimes that the Serbian security forces committed against Albanian civilians and imprisoned fighters of the Kosovo Liberation Army. Truth and justice is in the best interests of the Kosovo community and the construction of a lawful state there,” Kandic underlined.
