Serbia officially seeks extradition of ex-KLA

Greetings one and all!
I know that many albanians will lambast the Serbs for having an "inadequate" or some-such legal system.
I am sure that many Albanians will state that an Albanian cannot get a fair trial in Serbia...
I wonder how Albania,the bastion of civilization (next to Kosovo of course) measures up?
Please read the attached article in the World renowned NY TIMES and judge for yourself.
Thanks

''When the second victim fell, the prosecution says, Gasi approached him and shot him again to make sure he was dead. ''



Who sayes that ? Was it anybody in the house when the shot happend ? There must been a witness in the hose to see Gashi making sure the victim was dead.

Many killings happened during a war and many Albanians also died only because they were not Serbs.

Amer,

That means, 2009 I am free to take a bazooka and go postal on Knez Mihailova. Or do somewhat Tim McVeigh-style.

Because it's post-Kumanovo time, I am hopefully excused.

A question: the crime was committed on June 11, the Kumanovo agreement was signed on June 9 - can this be classified as a war crime? If it's simply murder, torture, kidnapping, or whatever, would Serbia be able to try him in its War Crimes court? Me, I have no idea.

Hardly. Surely you noticed when living in the US that we managed to execute Mr. McVeigh perfectly well without classifying his actions as a war crime. I was merely wondering about the definition of a war crime and the jurisdiction of the court requesting Gashi's extradition.

Specifically - no, you won't be excused for going postal on the basis of the Kumanovo agreement. But then, in Serbia, you won't be executed for it either, as I understand.
