Former KLA fighter, Genc Zogaj, has been arrested in Geneva on a Serbian warrant.
Zogaj, who was detained by French authorities in October 2014 with the same arrest warrant, is currently in prison and his extradition to Serbia is expected to take place during the week.
Earlier, former member of the KLA, A.S., has been charged with committing war crimes against Serb civilians. According to media reports, “A.S. was arrested in his apartment in Zurich, while the Kosovo embassy in Bern has asked for an explanation.”
Kosovo Justice Minister Hajredin Kuci also intervened by means of sending a letter to Swiss Minister of Justice and Police Simonetta Sommaruga.
In his letter, Kuci reportedly said that a court in Kosovo, rather than one in a neighboring state, has jurisdiction over the alleged crimes.
