Pango: K�rkoj falje publike q� e futa vajz�n n� sht�pi (Vendosur: 06/03/09) tirane “Tani që ndoqa dy emisionet tuaja në televizion, u ftillova se gjithçka është e montuar…”. Me këto fjalë të para ndërhyri me anë të telefonit në emisionin “Opinion” të gazetarit Blendi Fevziu në “TV Klan”, ish-ministri i shkarkuar i Kulturës, Ylli Pango.Fevziu: Si ia vini ju emrin gjithë kësaj që keni bërë? Pango: Unë ia vë emrin një provokacion, shantazh dhe skenar i ndërtuar në mënyrë diabolike në cinizmin më ekstrem i cili mund të shkatërronte jetën e çdo njeriu këto dhe në botë. Fevziu: Ndiheni fajtor? Pango: Për këtë moment që ka parë publiku ku janë prerë sekuenca, unë e ndjej që duhet ti rezistoja këtij provokacioni dhe për atë moment i kërkoj falje publikut. Por në atë moment dhe atë periudhë që është shfaqur nuk i kam kërkuar absolutisht asnjë raport, dhe një pjesë e parë e kasetës shpjegon shumë për pjesën e dytë. Fevziu: I keni kërkuar marrëdhënie seksuale kësaj vajze? Pango: Absolutisht nuk është kërkuar asnjë marrëdhënie seksuale. Fevziu: I keni kërkuar të ekspozojë me rroba banje? Pango: I është kërkuar të ekspozohet sepse në mjaft nga pavionet ekspozohen femra me rroba banje dhe kam menduar që këtë ta bëjmë edhe në panairin tonë. Fevziu: Pse duhet të ekspozonte në shtëpinë tuaj me rroba banje? Pango: Përpara se të ndodhte kjo, kjo vajzë e cila është shumë e njohur për mua dhe nuk është njohur aty për herë të parë, por ka vite që njihet, ka ardhur dhe më vjen çudi si nuk e ka paraqitur kamera, me treçerekun e gjoksit jashtë. Kjo ngjarje është në shtëpi. Fevziu: Një vajzë ju ka kërkuar përmes një rekomandimi të punësohet… Pango: Kjo vajzë e cila ka kërkuar punë, ka ardhur me ndërhyrjen e Filip Çakulit, i cili njihet me mua prej 40 vjetësh. Me këtë zotëri që ka paturpësinë të shkatërrojë jetën time, mu kërkua si nder, e mora parasysh. Kur pashë që notat ishin të mira i ofrova punë, madje edhe punë plotësuese, që u transmetua sot. Nuk ka pasur asnjë ndërhyrje siç thotë gazetarja e “Top Channel” që ka qarë. Fevziu: Kësaj vajze i keni kërkuar takim në shtëpi? Pango: Absolutisht. Kjo vajzë nuk i është ofruar punë vetëm në ministri, por edhe në Institutin Shqiptar të Studimeve Sociale dhe Psikologjike dhe i është kërkuar që të shkojë atje përpara se të shkoja unë, pasi kishte edhe njerëz të tjerë në institut që prisnin. Kjo vajzë nuk ka dashur të interpretojë këtë gjë, e ka mohuar dhe e ka interpretuar sikur unë e kam ftuar në shtëpinë time. Kamera e “Top Channel” ka kapur poshtë “Ylli Pango”, ndërkohë që po të shkonte lart do shikonte “Institutin Shqiptar të Studimeve Sociale dhe Psikologjike”. Fevziu: Kjo vajzë është parë me mikrofon, duke iu përgjigjur telefonatës suaj. Pse e morët në telefon këtë vajzë? Pango: Më kishte marrë më përpara dhe më ka kërkuar punë me insistim dhe më ka ndërhyrë edhe Filip Çakuli. Por nuk jepen këtu telefonata e vajzës, por ato që kam bërë. Ia bëra të gjitha këto (makina me shofer) për ti kryer komoditet. Shoferi është zyrtar. Është ndërhyrja e mikut tim. Edhe ministrat bëjnë ndere. Kësaj vajze i është garantuar që në institut do të gjejë njerëz, kurse kamera ka fiksuar vetëm emrin tim. Është kërkuar të vijë edhe në mëngjes edhe pasdite. Kjo vajzë është dashur aty, sepse ka pasur mungesë njerëzish dhe përderisa kishte nota të mira dhe kisha ndërhyrje mund të bënte këtë punë. Fevziu: Ju kërkoi punë, i ofruar punë në ministri apo në institut? Pango: Në të dyja dhe pastaj nguli këmbë për në ministri. Ajo vajzë nuk erdhi fare në institut, me pretendimin se aty mund ti ndodhte ndonjë gjë. Biseda e transmetuar sot i thashë se aty ka njerëz. Duke parë që nuk donte i thashë dakord për në ministri. Fevziu: U punësua në ministri kjo vajzë? Pango: Kjo u largua dhe nuk u kthye më fare. Fevziu: Përse një vajzë me rekomandim duhet të përgjohet? Pasi ka bërë përgjimin vajza është tërhequr se nuk ka dashur të përzihet. Kjo vajzë është e njohur apo e panjohur për ju? Pango: Kjo vajzë është larguar sepse me të nuk u realizua dot pjesa e skenarit të përgatitur nga Filip Çakuli dhe padroni i tij Edi Rama. Kjo vajzë ka bërë vetëm biseda telefonike. Ajo ka pretenduar se unë do i them ndonjë fjalë nga ato që donte Filip Çakuli. Provokacionin e parë Ylli Pango e ka përballur. Kjo vajzë ka ardhur me veshje mjaft të papërshtatshme. Vajza ka bërë vetëm biseda normale. Unë do ti kërkoj prokurorisë të zbardhë të gjitha bisedat. Vajza siç erdhi dhe iku, pasi nuk u realizua dot skenari. Fevziu: Pastaj erdhi një vajzë tjetër. E njihnit këtë vajzë? Pango: Vite përpara. Në një emision publik si opinioni juaj, por jo i tillë. Për arsye etike se them sot, por jam gati ta them kur të doni dhe ku të doni. Është e njohura ime dhe prandaj kam thënë që është një problem personal. Fevziu: Çdomethënë e njohura? Pango: Është njohur në rrethana publike. Kjo vajzë më ka kërkuar edhe shkollë kur kam qenë dekan dhe jam përpjekur ta ndihmoj brenda rregullave. E kam takuar edhe vite më parë, por jam habitur nga transformimi i saj kur më doli përpara në ministri. Fevziu: Keni pasur marrëdhënie më parë? Pango: Jo. I thashë ku ju kam parë unë ju. Momenti i parë ishte i habitshëm. Ajo më pas ma sqaroi. I thashë të kërkoj falje dhe pashë që kish rënë shumë kile në peshë. Pas kësaj unë kam ritakuar të njohurën time të vjetër, e cila është futur në rolin e gazetares investigative. Ajo që ka dalë në “Top Channel” është ajo, është një tjetër. Është e dëshmuar që unë e njoh prej vitesh. Fevziu: Jeni njohur personalisht? Pango: Vite më përpara në studio dhe pastaj personalisht. Padyshim që e njoh. Atë ditë i thashë hajde nesër në orën 10. Fevziu: Erdhi në ministri ç’ndodhi? Pango: Nuk erdhi në ministri. I ka rënë telefonit, këto janë ato telefonata që nuk i zbardh “Top Channel” dhe më ka kërkuar kurdo sido që të ishte puna. I thashë do takohemi pasdite në ministri. Nuk erdhi pasdite. Pasdite në ministri ka njerëz deri vonë. Nuk ka ardhur në ministri dhe unë kam shkuar në shtëpi. Kur kam shkuar në shtëpi jam marrë në telefon nga zonjusha dhe më tha a të vij unë. I thashë jam shumë i lodhur dhe nuk jam më në ministri, jam në shtëpi. Ajo u tregua e gatshme të vij në shtëpi. Fevziu: Pse duhet ta prisnit ju ministër në shtëpi? Pango: Kam njohje të vjetër me të. Më ka kërkuar punë. Këtë njeri e kam ndihmuar. Mora përsipër ta ndihmoj. Hap derën dhe shoh një vajzë krejtësisht të transformuar, me një dekolte të ekzagjeruar. Ishte e njëjta vajzë. U ngjitëm lart dhe fillojmë bisedën për peshën. Fevziu: U fol për një oxhak në shtëpinë tuaj… Pango: Nuk kemi qenë pranë oxhakut, edhe kjo mund të dëshmohet. Filloi biseda për peshën. E gjithë kjo pjesë që duhet të zbardhet është prerë. I kam thënë që është e habitshme se si mund të bjerë njeriu kaq shumë dhe përgjigja ka qenë që marr disa ilaçe, që mund të më bëjnë dëm edhe në stomak, por me ato kam arritur të dobësohem kaq shumë. Në raste të tilla i thashë ndodh diçka që lëkura transformohet dhe rrudhet dhe aty është kapur ajo sekuencë që i kam thënë dale të shoh pak lëkurën. Duke pasur parasysh konfidencën e pasur që përpara me të, këtë gjë edhe mund t’ja thosha. Pastaj ka ardhur momenti, që u dha pjesa e amplifikuar për publikun, unë për këtu bëj apologji të thellë. Provokacione të tilla jam me të vërtetë nga më të rrezikshmet dhe janë skenarë të cilët janë të palejueshëm sepse janë me qëllim të përcaktuar. Nëse një vajzë vjen me veshje normale ka shumë më pak të ndodhin gjëra të tilla. Kur ka thënë të dalë nudo, i kam thënë jo, me rroba banje. Fevziu: U ka thënë ajo të dalë nudo? Pango: Po. Fevziu: S’është kjo pjesë?

Skandali, Berisha preferon heshtjen pas shkarkimit të Pangos (Dërguar më: 06/03/09) Shkarkimi i menjëhershëm mbetet rasti unikal në vendimet që kryeministri Berisha pas skandaleve që kanë përfshirë këto vite anëtarë të kabinetit të tij. Largimi i Pangos është paraprirë vetëm nga dorëheqjet që ish ministra apo përfaqesues të qeverisë kanë thënë ndërkohë që vetë kryeministri Berisha ka heshtur duke mos ndërmarrë asnjë veprim tjetër. Sot Berisha ka refuzuar tu përgjigjet pyetjeve të gazetarëve lidhur me skandalin e ish ministrit të kulturës. TIRANE- 4 minuta pas trasmentimit të skandalit seksual i kanë mjaftuar kryeministrit Berisha për të firmosur shkarkimin e menjëhershëm të ish ministrit të kulturës, 2 vjet pasi vetë Berisha firmosi emërimin e tij në kabinetin qeveritar. Por që nga ai moment kreu i qeverisë ka heshtur lidhur me një tjetër skandal, këtë herë seksual, që ka përfshirë qeverinë e tij. Gjatë këtyre dy ditëve kryeministri ka dhënë të gjitha sinjalet se e quan të mbyllur këtë ceshtje, ndërkohë që gjatë paradites së të premtes ka refuzuar tu përgjigjet pyetjeve të gazetareve, pas nje aktiviteti për lejet e ndërtimit. Të njëjtën gjë, Kryeministri ka bërë edhe në mbledhjen e qeverisë ku për më shumë se 40 minuta ka folur për krizen ekonomike, përpara ministrave dhe zv.ministrave. Por shkarkimi brenda katër minutash për të cilin u vlerësua, ka hedhur hije dyshimi lidhur me arsyen e vërtetë të këtij reagimi të menjëhershëm. Vetëm një vit më parë, pas tragjedisë, 15 km larg Tiranës, ku 26 persona gjetën vdekjen e ku i akuzuari ishte sërish një minister i kabinetit të tij, Fatmir Mediu, e ku u përfol për përfshirjen e djalit të kryeministrit në fabrikën e vdekjes në Gërdec, vetë Berisha priti dorëheqjen e Mediut pas 3 ditësh, duke mos ndërmarrë asnjë veprim tjetër, si shkarkimi apo dënimi i ngjarjes së rëndë. Por skandalet duket se kanë shoqëruar vit pas vitin qeverisjen e demokratëve. Kështu në vitin 2006, ish drejtori i avicionit civil pas përgjimit në zyren e tij u zbulua të kishe gisht në një aferë korruptive për një kompani fluturimi. Skandali lëkundi qeverinë dhe sërish kryeministri heshti duke u mjaftuar më pritjen e dorëheqjes së ish drejtorit të asaj kohe, Gazmend Dibra, aktualisht drejtor i përgjithshëm i burgjeve. Duket se cështja Pango, hyn në rastet unikale të skandaleve të tilla në qeverisjet shqiptare por njëherësh edhe rasti i vetëm kur kryeministri largon pa hezitim nga kabineti i tij një prej njerzve më të besuar.

EULEX officers

In the first war crimes trial to be held under the auspices of the EU Rule of Law Mission in Kosovo, EULEX, judges found a Kosovo Albanian guilty of murder, attempted murder and grievous bodily harm, sentencing him to17 years in jail.  Gani Gashi, 59, from Komoran in central Kosovo was found responsible for the murder of 4 members of the Albanian Obrija family at a checkpoint on 12 July 1998.

The panel of three judges included two judges from EULEX and one judge from Kosovo. The prosecutor was also from EULEX.

“This trial shows that EULEX is serious about investigating and prosecuting war crimes cases whenever they took place, as long as we have enough evidence for a successful prosecution to proceed. We will do this regardless of the ethnicity of those involved in the crime,” said Theo Jacobs, the chief EULEX Prosecutor.

The EU’s law and justice mission in Kosovo, EULEX, postponed the first trial under its mandate on Monday due to a protest by Serb judicial workers opposed to the work of the mission which they see as supporting Kosovo’s independence from Serbia.

The trial, against two Kosovo Serbs accused of robbery in Leposavic, was postponed for an as yet unspecified date.  The two men were indicted in June last year, charged with breaking into the home of an elderly couple in Gnjezane village, assaulting the couple and taking money and other valuables.

Bulgarian national arrested in Romania over alleged spying for Russia

03.03.2009  Eurasian Secret Services Daily Review

AIA

REVIEW TOPICS:  Bulgarian national arrested in Romania over alleged spying for Russia Ukrainian diplomat allegedly involved in Romania spy case, though data was conveyed to Russia  Bulgarian opposition leader assassination plot uncovered by secret services Bulgaria’s State Agency for National Security is nothing but threat to national security: Sofia city mayor Serbian state security ex-head does not believe his predecessor’s CIA claims  Russian intelligence behind Chechen killings in Turkey - newspaper Representatives of secret services of Ingushetia and North Ossetia met in Vladikavkaz today Acting Security Service of Ukraine head allegedly received premium for illegal sale of SBU facilities Kazakhstan’s National Security Committee participated in liquidation of major Central Asian drug cartels  Security service, police consider four murder versions of Armenian Police Vice Chief  Bulgarian national arrested in Romania over alleged spying for Russia  Peter Zikolov, a Bulgarian national, and Floricel Achim, a Romanian military officer,  Detained Bulgarian and Romanian nationals have been arrested in Bucharest yesterday on charges of respectively espionage and treason, the Bulgarian information agency BTA reported, cited by Darik radio. Achim allegedly sold state secrets to Zikolov, who sent it further to a non-NATO state, namely to Russia, through a complex network, organized as an intelligence service, Romanian news agency HotNews marks. The Bulgarian National radio (BNR) reported that Zikolov, who had a consulting company in the Romanian capital, has been accused of leaking military secrets to a third country that was not an European Union and NATO member.  The spokesperson of the Bulgarian Foreign Ministry, Dragovest Draganov, confirmed that Zikolov wasn’t in any way a representative of the Bulgarian state, but a private individual.  According to Romania’s daily Cotidianul, the two men were supplying top secret documents to a Russian representative for which they were paid significant amounts of money. However, in some reports it is said that Zikolov at interrogation has mentioned name of Ukraine telling about his illegal activities. Some Romanian media list the name of the alleged Bulgarian spy as Petar Marinov Zikolov. The Romanian non-commissioned officer admitted he was selling secrets for 1,000 US Dollars or less, according to HotNews. The Bulgarian Embassy in Romania stated that they were making all possible efforts to clarify the case and provide legal protection for Zikulov. The Romanian side has officially declared that the accusations were not against Bulgaria and Zikolov’s actions had nothing to do with his native country. Romanian authorities, including prosecutors, intelligence officers, army and police officers, have begun a mass investigation into the case. Local media write that this has been a major national security breach.  The Romanian Intelligence Service (SRI) announced that its Counterespionage Division was monitoring Achim’s actions since 2005. Even more, the SRI already had data about Zikolov’s activities. SRI did not confirm that the destination of the document stolen by Achim was Russia, according to Hotnews. Both Zikulov and Achim have been detained with a Prosecutor’s order and will spend 29 days behind bar, the maximum in Romania, over charges of international espionage, BTA notes. Achim and Zikolov filed an appeal and are expecting a sentence for paroled release the day after tomorrow, HotNews adds. Ukrainian diplomat allegedly involved in Romania spy case, though data was conveyed to Russia  It was Bulgarian Petar Marinov Zikolov who was arrested first in suspicion of espionage and then he denounced his Romanian partner, non-commissioned officer in the Ministry of Defense Floricel Achim, Bucharest-based daily Cotidianul online edition reports.  Petar Zikolov In the case of Achim Article 157 of the Romania’s Criminal Code is invoked, which refers to the treason by transmission of intelligence data. Zikolov’s arrest has been ordered under Article 159, relating to espionage, but with the application of Article 172 paragraph 2 Criminal Code. This last item refers to conditions under which crimes against state security such as espionage remain unpunished or receive reduced punishment. Sources close to the investigation confirmed to the Cotidianul that, indeed, the Bulgarian citizen was arrested first and the evidence offered by him enabled “necessary investigation” of activity of Floricel Achim.  Floricel Achim served as a warrant officer at the 1st Dacica Infantry Division and participated in several special training courses on information encryption. The court decided for the arrest of both persons for 29 days before an appeal, to Achim on charge of treason and Bulgarian Petar Marinov Zikolov under charges of espionage. “Since 2001, the defendant Achim Floricel was regularly meeting defendant Zikolov Petar Marinov, a Bulgarian national, and tied a friendship relationship with him. During this friendly relationship between 2001-09 defendant Achim Floricel purchased the computer networks of military unit documents making state secret”,  Floricel Achim the court ruling is quoted by the newspaper online edition.  In exchange for information, delivered in electronic format, using a memory-stick, Achim gave to Zikolov cash up to $1,000 at each meeting, which took place usually in the district of May 1 or National Stadium area. Zikolov told the court that in the period of 2001-2002 he was befriended to representative of Ukraine in Bucharest who told him he had been willing to pay $800-$1,000 dollars for each piece of classified military information when he would receive it. Sources say that investigators have evidence that the ultimate source of delivering the information was, in fact, the Russian Federation, and the Ukrainian diplomat was a simple intermediary.  Floricel Achim had copied and sold, according to investigators, information about “military communication systems, radar frequencies, NATO standard maps, drawings of military technique and maps subunits location, defense plans, etc…”  Achim had authorization to access classified information since October 6, 2006, the decision of the arrest stated. He acknowledged the facts, noting that he was determined to sell military secret because of “materially precarious situation.”  Bulgarian native Zikolov partly admitted the facts of committed actions that were showed by the investigators. In addition to the statements of Achim and Zikolov recognizing the facts of spying activity, the evidence include also interception of phone calls, photographs of meetings between Achim and Zikolov as well as conclusions of the searches made at their houses in Bucharest.  Bulgarian opposition leader assassination plot uncovered by secret services……………… http://www.axisglobe.com/article.asp?article=1770

ECHR rules against Turkey in Greek Orthodox church case

04/03/2009

STRASBOURG, France — The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) ruled on Tuesday (March 3rd) that Turkey had violated the property rights of a Greek Orthodox church on the Aegean island of Bozcaada. The court said Turkish authorities illegally prevented a Greek Orthodox foundation, which is the rightful owner of the Kimisis Teodoku church, from registering its property. Judges ordered Turkey to pay the foundation 105,000 euros in compensation. The EU has repeatedly called on the Turkish government to return seized property to minorities and expand their religious and cultural freedoms as part of reforms required to become an EU member.

In other news Tuesday, Turkish Airlines announced it was ready to immediately compensate the passengers or families of passengers aboard its plane that crashed near Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport last Wednesday. The company is offering initial payments of 50,000 euros to the families of those killed. It offered payments of 10,000 euros to those hospitalised for more than three days and 5,000 euros to all other passengers. (Hurriyet, Anadolu news agency, NTV, Reuters, In.news, DPA - 03/03/09)

Delta’s Slovenian job in jeopardy

4 March 2009 | 10:24 | Source: B92, Finance

LJUBLJANA — Delta has yet to pay up the remaining money for the construction of a sports-shopping facility in Slovenia, leaving the project in jeopardy, says daily Finance. Das Original Video bei Fiks Fare gesendet Delta Owner Miroslav Mišković (FoNet) The Slovenian daily writes that a new partner could be sought to replace Delta in the deal, adding that the Ljubljana municipality would receive EUR 25 million by cashing in the banker’s guarantee it received from Grep, the Delta subsidiary responsible for the project. Grep President Uroš Ogrin said that without Delta owner Miroslav Mišković’s money the project cannot be completed, adding that Delta had thus far paid EUR 5mn, leaving another EUR 15mn that was due to have been paid by the end of last year. Ogrin added that Delta acknowledged that it was having problems with receiving credit, Finance writes, adding that Mišković would lose EUR 25mn if he pulled out of the project. Meanwhile, Ljubljana Mayor Zoran Janković explained that Delta had not paid the rest of the money “because of the situation on the financial market,” and that he did not know when it would be paid. He said that Mišković had visited Ljubljana twice recently, adding that he was not concerned that Mišković had not stumped up the cash for the current project, since he had already “put in a non-binding bid for Mercator as well.” The mayor said that Delta would have to pay a contractual fine of EUR 20mn if it backed out of the deal. However, Janković said that even if Delta did back out, Ljubljana would find another partner within three months to finish construction, for which the completion deadline is the middle of next year.  Info Delta OLIGARCHEN: Die Bosse vom Balkan

Kosovo Albanian Organ Harvesting Atrocity, New Testimonies - Der Organ Handel der UCK Terroristen

Kosovo Albanian Organ Harvesting Atrocity, New Testimonies

Feb 3rd, 2009 | By De-Construct.net |

KLA organ trafficking routes, by Belgrade daily Vecernje Novosti

KLA Death Camps, on Land and Sea

Former KLA fighter claims that kidnapped and imprisoned Kosovo Serbs had their organs extracted for sale not only in Albania, but also on the ships sailing through the international waters, as well as in Italy, North Africa and Middle East.

In its latest edition, Belgrade weekly NIN carries statement of a mercenary and former member of the KLA (UCK, Kosovo Albanian terrorist formation) with initials I.T, who testified about transporting one group of captured Kosovo Serbs to Tirana and Durres in Albania where, with the help of “common” human traffickers, he transferred them to a ship which sailed out to international waters of Adriatic Sea.

According to the witness, that is where surgeons, mainly from Western countries, “dismantled them to their constituent parts”, as the operation of extracting vital organs for sale was referred to by the KLA.

This KLA member, whose name is known to NIN redaction and who is responsible for multiple kidnappings and murders committed in 1999, testified that he drove two waste disposal trucks from Kosovo through Paštrik. One carried the corpses of killed Kosovo Serbs, while in the second he transported the kidnapped Serbs who were still alive. They were first tortured and then killed in KLA death camps in Tropoje and Peshkopi, in Albania.

The main individuals responsible for transfer of victims from southern Serbian province of Kosovo and Metohija, according to the witnesses, were Daut Haradinaj (Ramush Haradinaj’s brother), Sami Lushtaku and Jakup Krasniqi.

One Albanian witness, who was imprisoned in the KLA camp Lapushnik, testified that Krasniqi and Hashim Thaçi (current “prime minister” of Kosovo province, appointed by the US-led NATO) directly participated in tortures in the camp, and are responsible for murders of the kidnapped Serbs imprisoned in Lapushnik.

According to the witnesses, in organ harvesting and trade, KLA was also being helped by some mujahedeen with “good connections” in the Middle East hospitals.

Some KLA members who participated in the removal of bodies of the killed Serbs from Kosovo, claimed that a number of captured Serb soldiers, after torture, were dismembered in Kukes, and their remains have long been buried in the Kukes city cemetery. Soon after the war, it was discovered some of the captured Yugoslav Army soldiers ended up on surgical tables in Valona (Vlore, Albania) hospitals, where their organs were harvested for the benefit of the rich buyers from Western Europe and Middle East states.

Others were transported by ships to Italy and North Africa, where they were used in the same way, and the same harrowing fate befell Kosovo Serb civilians who were kidnapped in 1999, after Yugoslav Army withdrew and NATO took over the safety and governing of the Serbian province.

Pound of Flesh

According to data collected by NIN, Kosovo Albanian harvesting and trade of organs started in 1998, with kidnapping of Serbs from Belacevac mine, most of whom were killed in death camps where the mujahedeen were stationed, in suburbs of Kukes and Bajram Curri in Albania.

Information about the mass graves on the mountain Cemernik, in southern Serbia, is of special interest, making this an important location, since it points to the organ traders’ route through Macedonia, toward Bulgaria, Turkey, Moldova and the Arabian Peninsula countries……………..

In the past month, testimonies by the former KLA members revealed KLA transported two waste disposal trucks from Kosovo province through Paštrik, one with corpses of killed Serbs, and the other carrying the kidnapped Kosovo Serbs, who were subsequently tortured and killed in Kosovo Albanian-run death camps in Tropoje and Peshkopi, in Albania.

The main individuals responsible for transfer of victims from southern Serbian province of Kosovo and Metohija, according to the witnesses, are Daut Haradinaj (Ramush Haradinaj’s brother), Sami Lushtaku and Jakup Krasniqi.

Son recognized father killed by Kosovo Albanians

March 4, 2009 – 2:28 pm Rade Dragovic recognized his father in a photo taken by Kosovo separatist government soldiers engaged in killing his father, Predrag, in 1999 after they kidnapped him from his home and dragged him to the mountains of northern Albania where, evidence shows, torture camps and organ extraction facilities were supported by the Albanian government.

“We fled to Montenegro while my father and his mother remained at our house. He said to have done no evil to anybody and have no reason to leave. He told us not to worry,” recollects the events Rade Dragovic.

On June 22, 1999 Rade’s father went to buy cigarettes in his hometown of Pec and he never returned.

Today, almost nine years later, his son Rade saw his father bloody under a gun of a Kosovo Albanian separatist government fighter Agim Ramadani posing in a picture as he prepared to kill his prize.

“In the photograph he is in uniform, but neither he nor anyone of the family took part in war conflict. We do not know if his body organs were removed from him,” Rade says of his father.

Agim Ramadani was a commanding officer of the so-called Kosovo Liberation Army or KLA, which was the terror arm of the Kosovo separatists that are in power in this Serbian province and have declared themselves independent.

Former Kosovo Albanian separatist so-called prime minister Ramush Haradinaj, was Ramadani’s commanding officer.

Haradinaj was extradited to the Hague war crimes tribunal but was found innocent after several of the witnesses that saw him commit atrocities against Serbs pulled out from testifying out of fear that Haradinaj or his henchmen will kill them and their family.

Serbia’s war crimes prosecutor Vladimir Vukcevic says that the KLA dressed up their victim in a uniform in order to mask the fact that the KLA was engaging in a wholesale murder of Serbian civilians.

“We have identified the most probable executors of Dragovic. About ten of the KLA rebels who took part in killings in the north of Albania have been identified,” Vukcevic said.

Prosecutors are unable to detail the exact number of civilian victims KLA abducted from Kosovo but suggest that the likely reason for their abduction to northern Albania is to have their organs taken out and sold.

They say that the KLA was not just the terror arm of the Kosovo separatist government seeking to ethnically cleanse Serbs, but was also engaged in narcotics and organ trade using the profits to partially enrich themselves, partially to fund weapons for their violence and partially to make political donations to Western politicians some of whom are now very vocal in defense of Kosovo’s unilaterally proclaimed independence.

Evidence has been uncovered in the Albanian village of Burelj, in north Albania, where a house was used to store the Serbian victims after their organs were taken out. These victims were later killed then buried in the village cemetery, prosecutors say.

Albanian government has once already declined the request to investigate the matter but, Vukcevic says, the prosecution will make another one.

The prosecution says that one witness to the organ extraction has already made a sketch of the house used for that purpose. The prosecution has located that house in the Port of Drac.

In the memoirs of the former chief war crimes prosecutor for Yugoslavia, Carla Del Ponte, a revelation was made that she pursued the organ trade investigation but found a great deal of resistance during evidence gathering from various authorities that took over the administration in Kosovo.

Belgrad - Die serbische Sonderstaatsanwaltschaft für Kriegsverbrechen hat laut eigenen Angaben einen wichtigen Schritt vorwärts in ihren seit knapp einem Jahr laufenden Ermittlungen über den vermeintlichen Handel mit Organen von im Kosovo gekidnappten Serben gemacht. Der Sonderstaatsanwalt Vladimir Vukcevic erklärte am Montag bei einer Pressekonferenz in Belgrad, dass dank einer Fotografie nun ein erstes Entführungsopfer identifiziert worden sei.

Die Fotografie, auf welcher neben dem Opfer auch Angehörige der extremistischen albanischen “Befreiungsarmee des Kosovo” (UCK) zu sehen sind, wurde nach Angaben der serbischen Sonderstaatsanwaltschaft auf dem Gebiet Albaniens in unmittelbarer Nähe des Grenzpostens Kosare im Jahr 1999 gemacht. Das Opfer Predrag Dragovic wurde nach der in Belgrader Medien kürzlich veröffentlichten Fotografie von seinem Sohn identifiziert.

Seit 1999 verschwunden

Dragovic blieb nach dem Abzug jugoslawischer Sicherheitskräfte aus dem Kosovo Mitte Juni 1999 in der Westkosovo-Stadt Pec. Seit 22. Juni jenen Jahres fehlte von ihm jede Spur. Gemäß Vukcevic wurden dank der Fotografien auch zehn mutmaßliche Kidnapper, alles einstige UCK-Angehörige, identifiziert.

Die serbische Justiz geht davon aus, dass rund 300 kosovarische Serben im Jahr 1999 gekidnappt und nach Albanien abgeführt worden seien. Dort soll es nach jüngsten Erkenntnissen der serbischen Justiz mindestens vier illegale medizinische Anstalten gegeben haben, in welchen den Annahmen nach jüngeren Entführungsopfern Organe entnommen wurden, bevor sie ermordet wurden.
