The association of Families of Kidnapped and Missing Persons in Kosovo has accused French FM Bernard Kouchner of insulting Serb victims. The association’s announcement states that Kouchner “responded most unprofessionally and cynically, insulting the victims and their families”, when a reporter asked him about the case investigating the trade in organs taken from kidnapped Serbs in the province. Families: French FM insulted Serb victims Yesterday in Gracanica, the French minister verbally abused the reporter, who said that some implicated him in the crime. “Sir, you should consult (a doctor). People who talk about things like that are bums and murderers,” Kouchner said, and denied that any organ trafficking took place in Kosovo. The association stated that it was “strange” that Kouchner, UNMIK chief at the time of the alleged crime, did not know anything about the allegations of a former Hague Tribunal Prosecutor Carla Del Ponte that organs had been removed from the Serbs kidnapped by ethnic Albanians, in a yellow house in northern Albania. “Kouchner, as a doctor and humanitarian, is obligated to help the victims regardless of religion and nation, which he did not show in practice. We believe that the Council of Europe team, led by Dick Marty, will complete the investigation about the organ trade of Serbs and other victims from Kosovo and Metohija,” the families said in the statement.
