EULEX chief Xavier de Marnhac stated on Wednesday in Tirana that in the next weeks a prosecutor and his assistants will be sent to Albania. According to reports, the prosecutor would investigate whether there was a human organ trafficking ring which sold organs of civilians arrested in Kosovo during the conflicts in 1998- 1999. "EULEX prosecutor to be sent to Albania" "I think that it is in the interest of the entire region that the investigation yields clear conclusions," Marnhac said. Albanian Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Edmond Haxhinasto voiced readiness of his country for cooperation with EULEX investigators who should check the allegations presented by Council of Europe (CoE) special rapporteur Dick Marty. Previously Albania, and the Kosovo Albanian authorities in Pristina dismissed the allegations presented in the Council of Europe report sumbitted by Dick Marty, and adopted by the CoE Parliamentary Assembly last year. The Swiss investigator accused the so-called Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) of transferring kidnapped civilians, Serbs and others, to Albania where their organs were extracted and then sold in the black markets abroad. The report alleges that the Drenica Group led at the time by now Kosovo Prime Minister Hashim Thaci were involved in these crimes.

Snažno nevreme stiže u Srbiju

U većem delu Srbije će danas pre podne biti pretežno sunčano, toplo, suvo i vetrovito, uz olujnu košavu u Beogradu, na jugu Banata, u Pomoravlju i donjem Podunavlju, a već u poslepodnevnim satima biće kratkotrajne kiše ili pljuskova.
