A Council of Europe investigative team is set to visit the “yellow house” in Albanian, where it is believed the organs of abducted Kosovo Serbs were harvested. The team, led by CoE special investigator Dick Marty, will visit the house mentioned in former Hague Chief Prosecutor Carla Del Ponte’s book, where it is believed abducted non-Albanians from Kosovo were taken to have their organs removed and sold on the black market. CoE team to investigate “yellow house” According to the Guardian newspaper, the CoE will investigate the home, owned by Mercim Katuqi, to see if the there is any evidence to support the claims of Serbian prosecutors. The Guardian has also obtained a report on a UN forensic examination of the Katuqi house commissioned by Del Ponte. "The report, compiled by UN expert Jose Pablo Baraybar, was previously believed to be missing. Though not conclusive, it mapped traces of blood that could have been human in two downstairs rooms. Lying discarded in a nearby stream, the report said, was material 'consistent with surgical overalls', syringes, a handgun holster, pill containers and bottles, as well as four empty drug containers, including one that contained a muscle relaxant," the Guardian writes. The surgeon performing the operations has been identified as a Kosovo doctor from Pec. Marty’s investigation could be bolstered further by information regarding a clinic in Kosovo where it is believed illegal organ transplants were performed recently, the Guardian reports.
