Four persons arrested in Prizren on illegal possession of arms and causing general danger charges faced an investigative judge yesterday. Kosovo police, KPS, spokesman Arber Beka told Tanjug on Saturday that all four were Albanians, one of them a citizen of the United States. Four arrested in Kosovo had terror ties? The four were arrested on Friday, placed in 48-hour detention, and they were expected to have be remanded in custody by the judge for 30 days. Two AK-47 assault rifles were found as the suspects were arrested, along with a hunting rifle, a carbine, a pistol, five hand grenades, an air rifle, 235 pieces of various ammunition, 22 pieces of ammunition for the hunting rifle – and a laptop computer. The spokesman said it was "still too early for the claims" that the four had connections with terrorism and radical Islamists, and that this would be determined during the investigation. Albanian language media in Pristina reported that the arrest came in cooperation with the American FBI, but the KPS spokesman would neither confirm nor deny this. The arrests came a month after KPS announced it had helped out an FBI investigation which led to arrests of Kosovo Albanians stateside, suspected of planning terrorist attacks abroad along with six Americans.

Zapad zapretio, Kina uzvratila

Kina je usvojila zakon o carinama kojim želi da osnaži mehanizme odbrane svoje ekomonije nakon pretnji Sjedinjenih Američkih Država i Evropske unije da će reagovati na izvoz jeftinih kineskih proizvoda.
