Serbia urged to free KLA suspects

The speaker of the Kosovan parliament has called on Serbia to free 10 suspected former Kosovo Liberation Army fighters it accuses of war crimes.

Police in the south Serbian region of Presevo seized them on Friday on suspicion of abductions, murders and rapes during the conflict in 1999.

They are said to include Kosovans visiting relatives in Presevo, which has a big ethnic Albanian population.

Serbia continues to regard Kosovo as part of its own territory.

Jakup Krasniqi, speaker of a parliament not recognised by Belgrade, said in a statement that the arrests were "intended to make Albanians and Serbs enemies and provoke Kosovo".

"We call upon the authorities of Belgrade to be responsible at these important historic moments the region and our two countries are going through," he said.

"In this regard we expect the release of the arrested citizens."...... BBC
