Following the completion of the testimony of Defence witness Time Kadrijaj, the trial against Shala adjourned for the week. It will resume on Monday, 27 November, at 09:30, when the testimony of another Defence witness is expected to commence.

Defence’s 7th witness Time Kadrijaj resumed her testimony this morning.

Following the SPO’s request in The Specialist Prosecutor v. Hashim Thaçi et al. for modification of the conditions of detention, Trial Panel II has ordered on an interim basis several temporary restrictions on the communications and visits that Hashim Thaçi, Kadri Veseli, and Rexhep Selimi may receive. The Panel has determined that these restrictions are appropriate given the risk of unlawful disclosure of confidential information from the detention facilities. The restrictions will remain temporary until the Panel issues a full decision on the merits of the SPO’s request in due course.

The interim decision can be found here.

Today’s hearing in the Shala case will continue for longer than scheduled - it is expected to last until 16:30 (live) or 17:15 (delayed feed).
