Fünf Monate Haft für Ex-Kulturminister
UNO-Tribunal verurteilt Astrit Haraqia wegen Einchüchterung eines Zeugen im Haradinaj-Prozess

Den Haag/Pristina/Belgrad - Der frühere kosovarische Kulturminister Astrit Haraqia ist am Mittwoch vom UNO-Tribunal für Kriegsverbrechen im ehemaligen Jugoslawien (ICTY) wegen Missachtung des Gerichts zu einer fünfmonatigen Haftstrafe verurteilt worden. Sein früherer Mitarbeiter Bajrush Morina kam mit drei Monaten davon. Das Tribunal hatte Anfang des Jahres die beiden Kosovo-Albaner der Einschüchterung eines Zeugen im Prozess gegen den früheren Premierminister Ramush Haradinaj angeklagt.

Laut Tribunalsanklage hatte Haraqia, der in Pristina (Prishtina) auch ein Komitee zur Verteidigung Haradinajs anführte, im Juli 2007 seinen Berater Morina nach Norwegen geschickt, um in Oslo mit einem geschützten Zeugen im Prozess gegen Haradinaj in Kontakt zu treten. Morina, Redakteur der Tageszeitung “Bota sot” und Berater des Kulturministers, war demnach bemüht, den Zeugen zu überreden, im Prozess gegen den Parteichef der “Allianz für Zukunft” (AAK) nicht auszusagen. Der Zeuge beugte sich dem Druck jedoch nicht und sagte später im Prozess aus.

Das Haager Tribunal sprach Haradinaj Anfang April in allen Anklagepunkten frei. Die Anklage hatte dem ehemaligen UCK-Kommandanten Haradinaj Kriegsverbrechen in der Region um Pec und Decani im Westen des Kosovo im Sommer 1998 vorgeworfen. Das Berufungsverfahren ist noch nicht abgeschlossen. (APA)

Former Kosovo Culture Minister Astrit Haraqija and his aide, Bajrush Morina, were convicted of contempt of court and received sentences of five and three months’ imprisonment, respectively, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) said on Wednesday (December 17th).

Both “were found guilty of having knowingly and willfully interfered with the administration of justice by interfering with a witness whose identity had been ordered protected” in the trial of former Kosovo Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj, the tribunal said in a statement.

An indictment filed by chief UN prosecutor Serge Brammertz in January alleged that in July 2007, Haraqija instructed Morina to travel to the country of residence of the protected witness, called Witness 2 in court documents, and persuade him not to testify. Morina, who was serving as political adviser to a deputy culture minister and as part-time editor at the Kosovo daily Bota Sot, knew Witness 2 and had “two lengthy meetings” with him. Police secretly taped both meetings, according to the indictment.

“The Trial Chamber found that the evidence established beyond reasonable doubt” that Haraqija “exercised his influence” over Morina, the ICTY statement said.

He accepted the minister’s authority and followed his instructions to pressure Witness 2, telling him that others who had testified against Haradinaj had later been killed.

The prosecutors also alleged that the former minister and a co-founder of the so-called Defence Committee for Ramush Haradinaj authorised Morina’s trip and the culture ministry paid for it.

The judges noted that Morina had apologised to Witness 2, who did not succumb to the pressure and eventually testified against Haradinaj and two other former Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) commanders. The trial ended in early April.

Haradinaj and co-defendant Idriz Balaj were acquitted of all war crimes charges, while the third co-defendant, Lahi Brahimaj, received a six-year prison term.

The case against Haradinaj and the others is currently pending before the ICTY’s Appeals Chamber.

Not being religious, and not being even a “cultural Muslim”, didn’t keep former Kosovo prime minister Ramush Haradinaj (currently on trial for war crimes) from meeting with bin Laden in Tirana in 1995, along with his fellow non-religious Christian-killer (and Albright darling) Hashim Thaci – at the Albanian president’s offices (Sali Berisha, who is now the Albanian prime minister). And as we know by now, one doesn’t need to be a practicing Muslim to feel aggrieved when Muslims are arrested for plotting or committing terrorism: http://www.theonerepublic.com/archives/Columns/Gorin/20070530GorinProAmerican.html Haradinja und Thaci trafen direkt Bin Laden 1995 in Tirana in einem geheimen Meeting. Story of the Day 2001-10-24 Interpol has information that the Albanian terrorists have links with Al Qaida organization and its leader Osama Bin Laden, London-based newspaper the Independent reads. The Independent reports that Interpol’s investigation team was claiming that Osama Bin Laden was related to the Albanian criminal gangs, which have wide network of trafficking in weapons and people, prostitution and racketeering throughout Europe. Interpol also has information that recently people from the Albanian criminal circles met with leaders of the Algerian terrorist organisations. The Albanian police reported that Osama Bin Laden was also present at that meeting. According to information from Interpol, one of Bin Laden’s military commander was appointed for head of the elite terrorist units of the Kosovo Liberation Army, during the Kosovo conflict in 1999. http://www.southeasteurope.org/subpage.php?sub_site=2&id=3773&s_word=Interpo    Die Bordell Villa das Ramuz Haradinja in Phristina   Houses of Haradinaj in Pristina!
