Now he knows his prison sentence. < blockquote > (AP, Reuters, BBC, VOA, AFP, Radio B92, ICTY, UN News Centre - 28/10/03)The UN war crimes tribunal sentenced a former Bosnian Serb guard to eight years in prison Tuesday (28 October) for killing and torturing inmates during the 1992-1995 war in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH).

Under a plea deal reached with UN prosecutors, Predrag Banovic pleaded guilty in June to one count of crimes against humanity, admitting responsibility for the persecution of detainees at the Keraterm camp on political, racial or religious grounds. As part of the agreement, prosecutors dropped four other charges against him.

Both the prosecution and defence recommended an eight-year prison sentence. Banovic, who turned 34 on Tuesday, worked as a waiter when conflict started in BiH.

The Keraterm camp, which held as many as 1,500 detainees, is said to have been a place where interrogations, severe beatings, sexual assaults and killings took place on a daily basis. Banovic was convicted on Tuesday of beating to death five detainees and participating in the beating of 27 others. "The Trial Chamber has found that the accused abused his position while on duty at the camp, mistreating and humiliating detainees in total disregard of human life and dignity," presiding judge Patrick Robinson said during Tuesday's hearing before announcing the sentence.

"The fact that he was a low-level offender in terms of the overall structure of authority at the Keraterm camp cannot alter the gravity of the offences for which he has been convicted." The lack of any prior criminal conviction and the defendant's age -- Banovic was 23 when he served at the camp -- were taken into account as relevant mitigating factors, as were his guilty plea and co-operation with the UN tribunal. Banovic and his twin brother, Nenad, were among seven suspects the UN tribunal indicted in 1995 on charges of alleged war crimes at Keraterm.

US Peace Corps Returns to Albania 30/ 10/ 2003 After a six-year absence, US Peace Corps volunteers are back in Albania, working as development advisers in partnership with municipal governments and community organisations. < blockquote > By Ardi Pulaj for Southeast European Times in Tirana - 30/10/03Peace Corps volunteers returned to Albania at the end of September, after a six-year absence in the country.
Američki mirovni korpus vraća se u Albaniju 30/ 10/ 2003 Nakon sestogodisnjeg izbivanja, dobrovoljci Američkog mirovnog korpusa vratili su se u Albaniju, gdje rade kao savjetnici za razvoj zajedno s općinskim vlastima i drustvenim organizacijama. < blockquote > Ardi Pulaj iz Tirane za Southeast European Times - 30/ 10/ 03Dobrovoljci Mirovnog korpusa vratili su se u Albaniju krajem rujna, nakon sestogodisnjeg izbivanja iz te zemlje.
According to the US Embassy, the move came in response to a request from the Albanian government and "signals the continuing strong bond that exists between the two countries."
Američko veleposlanstvo javlja da je ovaj potez odgovor na zahtjev albanske vlade i "najavljuje nastavak snazne veze koja postoji između ovih dviju zemalja".
It follows an agreement signed earlier this year by US and Albanian officials. The Peace Corps first arrived in Albania in 1992, two years after the fall of the communist regime.
To se dogodilo kao nastavak sporazuma potpisanog između američkih i albanskih duznosnika ove godine. Mirovni je korpus prvi puta stigao u Albaniju 1992., dvije godine nakon pada komunističkog rezima.
In all, 156 volunteers worked in the areas of secondary English teaching, small business development, and agro-forestry development. In 1997, however, the US government evacuated them because of violent riots that broke out after thousands of Albanians lost money in pyramid schemes. A first group of 32 new volunteers arrived in September to begin a municipal development project.
Ukupno je 156 dobrovoljaca radilo na područjima poduke engleskog za srednjoskolce, razvoja obrta te razvoja poljoprivrede i sumarstva. Međutim, 1997. godine američka ih je vlada evakuirala zbog nasilnih nereda koji su izbili nakon sto je tisuće Albanaca izgubilo novac u financijskom inzenjeringu. Prva skupina od 32 nova dobrovoljca stigla je u rujnu kako bi započela gradski program razvoja.
The group will be working as development advisers in partnership with municipal governments and community organisations. Once the volunteers complete their training in Albanian culture and language, they will serve within communities to develop and refine local businesses and entrepreneurial endeavours. A second group of 45 health educators and English teachers will follow in March 2004. According to the agreement signed in July by US Ambassador James F. Jeffrey and Albanian Deputy Foreign Minister Luan Hajdaraga, further groups will be deployed later to fill local needs. "I am pleased that the Peace Corps has been able to reopen the Albanian programme and has formed a strong partnership with the country," said Peace Corps Director Gaddi H. Vasquez.
Pripadnici ove skupine radit će kao savjetnici za razvoj zajedno s općinskim vlastima i drustvenim organizacijama. Nakon sto dobrovoljci zavrse obuku o albanskoj kulturi i jeziku, sluzit će u sklopu zajednica, kako bi razvili i unaprijedili lokalni obrt i poduzetničke pokusaje. Druga skupina od 45 zdravstvenih odgajatelja i učitelja engleskog stići će u ozujku 2004. Prema sporazumu potpisanom u srpnju između američkog veleposlanika Jamesa F. Jeffreyja i albanskog doministra vanjskih poslova Luana Hajdarage, kasnije će se angazirati daljnje skupine kako bi se namirile lokalne potrebe. "Drago mi je da je Mirovni korpus uspio ponovno otvoriti albanski program i stvoriti snazno partnerstvo s ovom zemljom," rekao je direktor Mirovnog korpusa Gaddi H. Vasquez.
"I believe the new volunteers have the determination and skills to make a real impact during this time of historic change in Albania." The US Peace Corps serves in 69 countries in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Central and South America, Europe, and the Middle East.
"Vjerujem da novi dobrovoljci imaju odlučnost i vjestinu za postizanje stvarnog učinka u ovom vremenu povijesnih promjena u Albaniji." Američki mirovni korpus sluzi u 69 zemalja u Africi, Aziji, Karibima, Srednjoj i Juznoj Americi, Europi i na Bliskom istoku.
The organisation traces its roots and mission to 1961, when then-Senator John F. Kennedy challenged students at the University of Michigan to serve their country in the cause of peace by living and working in developing countries. Since 1961, more than 170,000 volunteers have served in the Peace Corps, working in such diverse fields as education, health, HIV/ AIDS education and awareness, information technology, business development, the environment and agriculture.
Ta organizacija vuče korijene i zadatke iz 1961. kada je tadasnji senator John F. Kennedy pozvao studente na Sveučilistu Michigan da sluze svojoj zemlji u svrhu mira ziveći i radeći u zemljama u razvoju. Od 1961., vise od 170. 000 dobrovoljaca sluzilo je u Mirovnom korpusu, radeći na raznovrsnim područjima poput obrazovanja, zdravlja, obrazovanja i razvijanju svijesti o HIV- u / AIDS- u, informatičkoj tehnologiji, poslovnom razvoju, okolisu i poljoprivredi.
Former KLA Leader Agim Ceku Arrested, Then Released 30/ 10/ 2003 The recent arrest of Agim Ceku in Ljubljana and his subsequent release by Slovenian authorities after UNMIK intervention provoked a sharp response from Kosovo President Ibrahim Rugova.
Bivsi vođa OVK Agim �eku uhićen, a zatim oslobođen 30/ 10/ 2003 Nedavno uhićenje Agima �ekua u Ljubljani, te njegovo naknadno pustanje od strane slovenskih vlasti nakon intervencije UNMIK- a izazvalo je ostru reakciju predsjednika Kosova, Ibrahima Rugove.
Since then, Belgrade has called on the UN to launch an urgent investigation against Ceku. < blockquote > By Berat Buzhala for Southeast European Times in Pristina - 30/10/03International airports have become risky places for the former leaders of what was known as the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA).
Nakon toga je Beograd pozvao UN na pokretanje hitne istrage protiv �ekua. < blockquote > Berat Buzhala iz Pristine za Southeast European Times - 30/ 10/ 03Međunarodne zračne luke postale su riskantna mjesta za bivse vođe onoga sto se nekad nazivalo Oslobodilačkom vojskom Kosova (OVK).
This has become even more apparent with the arrest last week of General Agim Ceku by Slovenian police forces at the Ljubljana airport. Ceku, former general commander of KLA and now commander of the civil Kosovo Protection Corps, was arrested on his way back to Pristina while he was passing through Slovenia on his way from Croatia, where he was visiting his family. UNMIK chief Harri Holkeri told Slovenian police on 23 October to secure the release of Ceku, saying that his mission has sole jurisdiction over such cases and that the warrant issued by Serbian authorities is invalid. "We have released Agim Ceku because we are convinced that the court that has issued the indictment does not have competencies over Kosovo," said Slovenian authorities, following Holkeri's intervention. In June, Hungarian police detained former KLA leader Hashim Thaci for several hours on the basis of an old Serbian arrest warrant issued when Slobodan Milosevic was in power, according to his political party, the Democratic Party of Kosovo (DP).
To je postalo jos jasnije nakon proslotjednog uhićenja generala Agima �ekua od strane slovenskih policijskih snaga u ljubljanskoj zračnoj luci. �eku, bivsi glavni zapovjednik OVK, a sada zapovjednik civilnog Kosovskog zastitnog korpusa, uhićen je na povratku u Pristinu, prolazeći kroz Sloveniju na putu iz Hrvatske gdje je bio u posjetu obitelji. Sef UNMIK- a Harri Holkeri zatrazio je 23. listopada od slovenske policije da se pobrine za oslobađanje �ekua, rekavsi kako njegova misija ima isključivu nadleznost nad takvim slučajevima, te da je nalog koji su izdale srpske vlasti nevazeći. "Oslobodili smo Agima �ekua jer smo uvjereni da sud koji je izdao optuznicu nema nadleznost nad Kosovom", izjavile su nakon Holkerijeve intervencije slovenske vlasti. U lipnju je mađarska policija na nekoliko sati zadrzala bivseg vođu OVK Hashima Thaqija na temelju jednog starog srpskog naloga za uhićenje, izdanog u vrijeme dok je Slobodan Milosević bio na vlasti, tvrdi njegova politička stranka, Demokratska partija Kosova (DP).
Thaci, who now heads the DP, was released after then-UNMIK chief Michael Steiner intervened with the Hungarian Foreign Ministry. The international indictment against Ceku came from Interpol and was signed by the Pristina Regional Court in Nis, Serbia.
Thaqi, koji danas predvodi DP, oslobođen je nakon intervencije sefa UNMIK- a, Michaela Steinera, kod mađarskog Ministarstva vanjskih poslova. Međunarodna optuznica protiv �ekua stigla je od Interpola te je potpisana na pristinskom Općinskom sudu u Nisu, u Srbiji.
After the war, the Serbian staff of Kosovo courts was reorganised within Serbia and continues to claim legitimacy over Kosovo, which is administered by the UN. Serbian Judge Danica Marinkovic has dealt with the files of former KLA members and has pressed charges against two of the main leaders for the alleged killing of Serbs during and after the war.
Nakon rata, srpsko je osoblje kosovskih sudova reorganizirano unutar Srbije, te nastavlja zahtijevati legitimitet na Kosovu, kojim upravlja UN. Srpska sutkinja Danica Marinković bavila se predmetima o bivsim članovima OVK i podigla je optuznice protiv dvojice glavnih vođa za navodna ubojstva Srba tijekom i nakon rata.
Marinkovic charges Thaci and Ceku with killing around 700 people. Officials in Belgrade expressed disappointment at Slovenia's move.
Danica Marinković optuzuje Thaqija i �ekua za ubojstva oko 700 osoba. Duznosnici u Beogradu izrazili su razočaranje ovim potezom Slovenije.
Meanwhile, Serbian Justice Minister Vladan Batic has not given up.
U međuvremenu, srpski ministar pravosuđa nije odustao.
He has requested that UNMIK extradite Ceku, Thaci and Ramush Haradinaj to Serbia for trial.
Zatrazio je od UNMIK- a izručenje �ekua, Thaqija i Ramusha Haradinaja Srbiji radi suđenja.
Bulgaria Closes Another Chapter in EU Accession Negotiations 30/ 10/ 2003 Bulgarian officials hailed the closure of the Justice and Home Affairs chapter, considered one of the most difficult, as an important step towards meeting the country's EU accession goals. < blockquote > (Focus - 30/10/03; BTA, Mediapool, Novinite, bTV, BNN, News .bg, Dnevnik, EU Observer - 29/10/03)Bulgaria and the EU reached agreement Wednesday (29 October) on the provisional closure of talks on the Justice and Home Affairs chapter, bringing the total number of closed accession negotiation chapters to 26.
Bugarska privodi kraju jos jednu etapu pregovora o pridruzivanju EU 30/ 10/ 2003 Bugarski su duznosnici pozdravili zavrsetak etape pregovora o pravosuđu i unutarnjim poslovima, koja se smatra jednom od najtezih, te predstavlja vazan korak u pravcu ispunjenja akcesijskih teznji EU. < blockquote > (Focus - 30/ 10/ 03; BTA, Mediapool, Novinite, bTV, BNN, News. bg, Dnevnik, EU Observer - 29/ 10/ 03) Bugarska i EU postigle su u srijedu, 29. listopada, sporazum o privremenom okončanju etape pregovora koja se odnosi na pravosuđe i unutarnje poslove, čime je ukupan broj okončanih etapa pregovora o pridruzivanju dosegao brojku od 26.
With only four chapters still on the table, Bulgarian officials said the country is on track towards its strategic goal of completing accession talks in 2004 and joining the EU in January 2007. Covering such issues as migration and border control, police and customs co-operation, and judicial co-operation in fighting organised crime, the chapter is considered one of the most difficult in any country's EU accession negotiations. Wednesday's move was made possible by the recent adoption of amendments to Bulgaria's Constitution, providing for reforms in the judiciary system that the EU had long sought.
Bugarski duznosnici smatraju kako je, sa samo jos četiri preostale etape, zemlja na dobrom putu ka ostvarivanju svog strateskog cilja - okončanja akcesijskih pregovora tijekom 2004. i pridruzivanja EU u siječnju 2007. Ova etapa, koja se bavi temama kao sto su migracije i granična kontrola, suradnja policije i carine, te suradnja pravosuđa u borbi protiv organiziranog kriminala, smatra se jednom od najzahtjevnijih u pregovorima svake zemlje oko pridruzivanja EU. Pomak do kojeg je doslo u srijedu omogućen je nedavnim usvajanjem amandmana bugarskom ustavu, kojima se otvara put za reforme u pravosudnom sustavu koje EU zahtijeva već dulje vrijeme.
As part of the negotiations on the chapter, Bulgaria agreed to report every six months on progress in implementing the reforms. Foreign Minister Solomon Passy said he expected the closure will translate into a "very positive" assessment in the European Commission's (EC) annual report on Bulgaria, due to be released on 5 November, along with those on Romania and Turkey. Passy also said he hoped it would be last report before the conclusion of the negotiations in 2004 and that each candidate country would be assessed on its own merits. While describing the chapter closure as a great success for Bulgaria, officials and politicians in Sofia emphasised the importance of strict observance of the judiciary reforms and ensuring financial support needed to underpin the envisioned measures.
U sklopu postignutog sporazuma u ovoj etapi, Bugarska je pristala na podnosenje izvjesća o napretku u primjeni reformi svakih sest mjeseci. Ministar vanjskih poslova Solomon Passy izjavio je kako očekuje da će postizanje sporazuma rezultirati "vrlo pozitivnim" ocjenama u godisnjem izvjesću Europske komisije o Bugarskoj, koje bi trebalo biti objavljeno 5. studenog, zajedno s izvjesćima o Rumunjskoj i Turskoj. Passy je također rekao kako se nada da će ovo biti i posljednje izvjesće prije okončanja pregovora 2004. godine, te kako će svaka zemlja kandidat biti ocjenjivana na osnovi vlastitih zasluga. Premda okončanje ove etape pregovora opisuju kao veliki uspjeh za Bugarsku, duznosnici i političari u Sofiji naglasili su vaznost pomnog praćenja pravosudnih reformi i osiguravanja financijske potpore potrebne za potporu planiranih mjera.
Wednesday's move, a senior right-wing opposition politician said, is a decisive step on the road to EU membership and clears the way for completion of the accession negotiations with the Union in May 2004. The closure of the talks in 2004 will, in itself, be the best recognition of the country's efforts towards joining the bloc, Bulgaria's European Affairs Minister and chief negotiator Meglena Kuneva was quoted as saying from Brussels on Wednesday. The chapters that remain include Competition and State Aid, Agriculture, Regional Policy, and Financial and Budgetary Provisions.
Pomak do kojeg je doslo u srijedu, izjavio je visoko rangirani političar desničarske opozicije, predstavlja odlučan iskorak u pravcu članstva u EU, te otvara put dovrsenju pregovora o pridruzivanju Uniji u svibnju 2004. Okončanje pregovora tijekom 2004. će, samo po sebi, biti najveće priznanje napora zemlje u pravcu pridruzivanja bloku, citirana je izjava dana u srijedu u Bruxellesu od strane bugarske ministrice za europska pitanja i glavne pregovaračice Meglene Kuneve. Preostale etape uključuju trzisnu utakmicu i drzavnu potporu, zemljoradnju, regionalnu politiku, te pitanja vezana uz financije i proračun.
