Luka Misetiq, legal counsel for the former President of Kosovo, announced that the Appeals Panel of the Specialized Chambers has approved an additional appeal filed by the Prosecution concerning the case against Hashim Thaçi for contempt of court. In a statement posted on the social network X, Misetiq reported that the Appeals Panel has accepted all appeals submitted by the Prosecution while simultaneously rejecting every appeal lodged by the defense. Misetiq detailed the proceedings, noting that the Appeals Panel for the trial concerning Hashim Thaçi’s contempt of court case approved the latest appeal from the Prosecution.
Furthermore, the statement provided a summary of the appeal outcomes across Thaçi’s two ongoing cases. Specifically, the record indicated that out of three appeals filed by the Prosecution, all three were approved, representing a 100% success rate. Conversely, regarding the defense appeals, the panel rejected all forty-four appeals submitted, resulting in a 100% failure rate for the defense.
These developments highlight the ongoing appellate review process within the Specialized Chambers. The decision by the Appeals Panel to grant the Prosecution’s latest appeal suggests continued review of the legal matters before the court. The contrasting outcomes—full approval of the Prosecution’s appeals versus the complete rejection of the defense’s appeals—provide a clear update on the current status of the legal proceedings before the panel.
