Račak and Dubrava left out

Although the Račak incident, in which 45 Albanians died under unclear circumstances, was a direct cause for the bombardment of Serbia in 1999, the Hague prosecution said it will not dwell on this, but solely on the legal aspect of the events: ‘We still believe these three events should remain within the case, because they are important, because it is important that a court decision be made on these events. Unfortunately, as you know, we never reached a verdict on Račak and Dubrava in the Milošević trial.’ Anton Nikiforov, Prosecution spokesman, said.

The Hague prosecution expects to receive an official court statement, and to make its decision whether to appeal next week. Possible appeal would be considered by the Hague council of appeal.
