Inhuman treatment of people and illicit trafficking in human organs in Kosovo

This is sensational stuff and blows apart the notion of good versus bad. If this was public in 2001 there would have been a swift solution for the terrorists in Macedonia.

Only one mention of Macedonia here:

26. Numerous persons who have worked for many years in Kosovo, and who have become among the most respected commentators on justice in the region, counseled us that organized criminal networks of Albanians (“the Albanian mafia”) in Albania itself, in neighbouring territories including Kosovo and ‘the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia’, and in the Diaspora, were probably more difficult to penetrate than the Italian mafia; even low-level operatives would rather take a jail term of decades, or a conviction for contempt, than turn in their clansmen.

Too much to include all the text here but feel free to copy and paste sections for further discussion. I suggest you save the original document before the USA and Europe remove it. I suspect it does not fit in well with their respective agendas.

36. The reality is that the most significant operational activities undertaken by members of the KLA – prior to, during, and in the immediate aftermath of the conflict – took place on the territory of Albania, where the Serb security forces were never deployed.

Was there any doubt?
What does Albania's constitution say about territorial integrity/aspirations?
Oh that's right, only Macedonia signs agreements and changes its constitution for these things.

[Risto the Great]

69. Everything leads us to believe that all of these men would have been convicted of serious crimes and would by now be serving lengthy prison sentences, but for two shocking dynamics that have consolidated their impunity: first, they appear to have succeeded in eliminating, or intimidating into silence, the majority of the potential and actual witnesses against them (both enemies and erstwhile allies), using violence, threats, blackmail, and protection rackets; and second, faltering political will on the part of the international community to effectively prosecute the former leaders of the KLA. This also seems to have allowed Thaqi – and by extension the other members of the “Drenica Group” to exploit their position in order to accrue personal wealth totally out of proportion with their declared activities.

And what a fitting observation number (69) to confirm the terrorists will never have their day in court for as long as they are wined, dined and 69'd by the USA amongst others.

"Inhuman treatment of people and illicit trafficking in human organs in Kosovo"

Risto,
and guess who is the HEAD OF HUMAN ORGAN AND ARMS RING?

KOSOVO PM IS HEAD OF HUMAN ORGAN AND ARMS RING, COUNCIL OF EUROPE REPORTS

Strasbourg/London, 15 December 2010 (MIA) - Kosovo's prime minister is the head of a "mafia-like" Albanian group responsible for smuggling weapons, drugs and human organs through eastern Europe, according to a Council of Europe inquiry report on organised crime.

Hashim Thaçi is identified as the boss of a network that began operating criminal rackets in the run-up to the 1999 Kosovo war, and has held powerful sway over the country's government since, reads "The Guardian".

The report of the two-year inquiry, which cites FBI and other intelligence sources, has been obtained by the Guardian. It names Thaçi as having over the last decade exerted "violent control" over the heroin trade. Figures from Thaçi's inner circle are also accused of taking captives across the border into Albania after the war, where a number of Serbs are said to have been murdered for their kidneys, which were sold on the black market..........

Hammarberg: Countries of former Yugoslavia to step up efforts in cases of missing persons

Strasbourg, 14 December 2010 (MIA) - Countries of the former Yugoslavia need to step up their efforts to resolve cases of missing persons, says Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights, Thomas Hammarberg.

The presidents of Serbia and Croatia have met on several occasions recently and the issue of missing persons has been high on their agenda. It has been reported that the president of Serbia, Mr Boris Tadic, brought with him important documents to the latest meeting concerning persons who have been missing since the siege of the Croatian city of Vukovar in 1991.

"These developments are very encouraging", says Commissioner Hammarberg in his latest Human Rights Comment published today, a press release of the Council of Europe reports.

"Other politicians from the region should follow their example. Working together to bring an end to the suffering of the families of missing persons is a prerequisite for a true process of reconciliation in the former Yugoslavia", says Hammarberg.

More than 34,000 persons went missing as a result of the conflicts involving Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Kosovo, with approximately 20,000 cases solved.

"However the families of almost 14,500 persons are still waiting to receive information about the fate of their loved ones. Not knowing what happened to a missing person is a particularly anguishing trauma and the suffering that these families endure must come to an end", stresses Hammarberg.

From memory, around 30 Macedonians are still missing. all hope must be gone but this news would be disturbing to say the least for those surviving family members.

I hope the Macedonian government start asking questions and get involved as Hammarberg suggests,

It is disggraceful most have you forgotten

Thier fate was decide by the Thug and Murderer Ali-Ahmeti

[Big Bad Sven]

Shiptars are only good for trafficking drugs, killing people, pimping off woman and other forms of criminal activities.

They are a very simple, but also very evil people.

Such a low life and miserable group of people.

Yeh, in what way? All i know is they were never to be found. I am sure Ahmeti had something to do with it, i am just wandering if he (Ahmeti) also practiced organ trafficking and why aren't the government following Hammarbergs advice " resolve cases of missing persons"

Politika: Organ transplantation conducted in "Mother Teresa" hospital in Tirana

http://macedoniaonline.eu/content/view/17190/46/

Saturday, 25 December 2010
Surgical procedures of the victims’ bodies were conducted in health centres or hospitals that are used during the war for the treatment of Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) soldiers, according to Saturday's edition of Politika daily.

Daily has learned that these are some of the results of the investigation of the Serbian prosecution for war crimes.

75 patients were admitted from Kosovo at the Clinical Hospital Centre "Mother Teresa" in Tirana during the 1999, while the University Hospital in Skopje, received 70 patients from Kosovo diagnosed with severe renal insufficiency, according to Politika.

Several kidney transplantations have been conducted in Tirana. In the same hospital, out of 75 patients 35 are kept while the others were transported to Italy (25) and Austria (15) where they waited for the transplant.

Serbian prosecutor's office as one of the evidences for claims of existence of organs implies the statement of Dr. Sulejman Kodra, Head of the Department of Transplantation University Hospital "Mother Teresa" in Tirana, who stated for Top News television that cases of transplantation of organs from unknown donors were recorded, however the "surgeons cannot be responsible for this."

It is suspected that there are mass graves on Albanian territory where bodies of the victims were buried, Politika reads.

Politician angers MEPs over Kosovo organ harvesting claim

http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/world/2011/0311/1224291885150.html

A BAD-TEMPERED meeting of the European Parliament’s foreign affairs committee focusing on the alleged harvesting of organs of Serbian prisoners by the Kosovan army during the conflict there in 1999 took place in Strasbourg yesterday.

Last December, Swiss politician Dick Marty presented a report to the Council of Europe which suggested there was substance to long-standing allegations of trafficking in the organs of 300 Serbian prisoners by the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA).

His report links the Kosovan prime minister and former KLA political leader Hashim Thaçi to the illegal harvesting.

The reports first surfaced in 2002 but senior sources in Eulex, the EU mission in Kosovo, believe they are without foundation and say an investigation it carried out 2004 found nothing to suggest harvesting had ever taken place.

Yesterday, Mr Marty gave a presentation to the parliament’s foreign affairs committee.

Journalists were excluded from the meeting, but afterwards MEPs said Mr Marty had failed to provide any evidence concerning the allegations and claimed he had accused MEPs who were critical of his report of bias.

“The problem was that he presented his report in a sharp way and then we put questions to him in a similarly sharp way and he started to attack us,” German MEP Bernd Posselt told The Irish Times. “He has to give answers and not to attack the people who put questions to him.”

Mr Posselt dismissed the report as “not serious”. He said he wanted to “hear serious fact and not polemic and all we got today was polemic and opinions”.

German MEP Doris Pack said, “His reaction was very offensive.” She said that “at least 90 per cent” of MEPs who had questioned Mr Marty had been very critical of the report. “At the end he was so furious he attacked all of us and accused us of being partial because we know these people [in the Kosovan government] . . . Of course I know these people. I have been working in the region for 24 years.” She said he had not provided the names of witnesses, victims or the organs which were allegedly harvested.

When approached by this newspaper, Mr Marty declined to comment on the contents of the report or the outcome of the hearing. It is understood he told the hearing a witness protection programme was needed in Kosovo before he could provide more details on witnesses to the alleged trafficking as their lives were in danger.

Seriously , what would motivate a Swiss politician to lie about such activities?
