INDICTMENT OF MILOSEVIC: NO PEACE WITHOUT JUSTICE STRONGLY WELCOMES THE RECENT ANNOUNCEMENT BY THE PROSECUTOR OF THE ICTY

Rome, 27 May 1999 - "Sergio Stanzani and Gianfranco Dell'Alba, President and Secretary General of No Peace Without Justice, express their great satisfaction about the announcement of the indictment of President Slobodan Milosevic by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia.

No Peace Without Justice has actively campaigned for a long time to bring about such an indictment in relation to crimes committed in the former Yugoslavia. In October and November 1998, No Peace Without Justice conducted two investigative missions to Kosovo and other states of the former Yugoslavia, with a team of legal experts. The final report clearly demonstrates that the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia has jurisdiction over such crimes.

This report was made public on 18 February in Rambouillet, during the negotiations, and was sent to the Prosecutor of the International Tribunal in order to facilitate her investigations and contribute towards an indictment of those persons responsible for the crimes which have been committed in Kosovo, including President Milosevic.

In addition the European Parliament, thanks to an amendment tabled by MEP of the Radical Party, recently passed a resolution calling for the immediate indictment of President Milosevic and all other political and military leaders responsible for the atrocities committed in Kosovo, on the basis of the fact that the forced displacement of hundred of thousands of Kosovars is in itself a crime against humanity.

No Peace Without Justice urges Governments to support the International Tribunal, by providing any information in their possession relating to the crimes which have been committed in Kosovo.

Following the success of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, it is extremely important that an effective permanent international criminal court be established as soon as possible in order to deter future perpetrators of crimes similar to those committed in Kosovo.
