Families of missing Kosovo Serbs react

An association of families of kidnapped and missing Kosovo Serbs has called on prosecutions and courts to react in the wake of the CoE resolution. "We expect all crimes to be investigated and criminals to meet their deserved punishment," a statement from the association said. Families of missing Kosovo Serbs react "For years we have offered evidence, names, locations of mass graves, names of witnesses willing to testify, to domestic and international officials, UNMIK, KFOR, EULEX, and most acted blind and deaf," said the statement. According to their data, the families have thus far been given the remains of 325 kidnapped Serbs, while 526 are still listed as missing. The Association of the Families of Kidnapped and Missing Serbs from Kosovo and Metohija said that after the adoption of the resolution in Strasbourg on Tuesday, courts and prosecutions of the countries where the crimes took place should now act. The PACE resolution itself calls for investigations to be launched into the allegations. The document was based on the Marty report, which names ethnic Albanian KLA as perpetrators of kidnappings of Serbs and other civilians in Kosovo, in 1999 and 2000. Some of them are believed to have been illegally imprisoned in northern Albania, where their vital organs were harvested to be sold in the black market.
