Kosovo PM linked to trafficking of drugs and human organs
Former Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) commanders are being accused of serious human rights abuses including organ and drug trafficking according to a report from the human rights body, the Council of Europe.
Kosovo’s current prime minister, Hashim Thaci, has been named 27 times in a draft copy seen by the BBC and due to be released on Thursday in Strasbourg.
Kosovo government has dismissed the draft as “baseless and defamatory.”
The report is the result of a two-year investigation and presents evidence of cross-border transfer of Serb and Albanian prisoners from Kosovo to Albania.
The Drenica group within the KLA, led by Thaci is accused of involvement in organised crime, including drug trafficking and trafficking in human organs. Evidence is being presented up to this present day.
