"Colombian officials told me they were not impressed by Serbia's request and that I could carry on with my program, but when an Interpol request came, they got upset and asked me to leave Colombia in 24 hours," he stated. According to Ceku, those officials also told him he would not be arrested but "removed" from Colombia "because of an Interpol request, with which Colombia has close and daily cooperation due to its internal problems". He also advised Interpol to "seriously" look into Serbia's arrest warrants for "Kosovo citizens".
