Former Hague Prosecutor Accuses Ethnic Albanians of Selling Serb Prisoners’ Organs

If this is true, why wasn’t it prosecuted? The former war crimes prosecutor at the Hague—who I believe botched the prosecution of Slobodan Milosevic—is accusing ethnic Albanians of a Nazi-level crime against humanity; the killing of prisoners in order to sell their organs. From the story:

According to the sources, senior figures in the Kosovo Liberation Army were aware of the scheme, in which hundreds of young Serbs were allegedly taken by truck from Kosovo to northern Albania where their organs were removed. Miss Del Ponte provides grim details of the alleged organ harvesting, and of how some prisoners were sewn up after having kidneys removed.

“The victims, deprived of a kidney, were then locked up again, inside the barracks, until the moment they were killed for other vital organs. In this way, the other prisoners were aware of the fate that awaited them, and according to the source, pleaded, terrified, to be killed immediately,” Miss Del Ponte writes.

She had better not be just whistling Dixie because this is an explosive charge. If true, no effort should be spared in bringing the harvesters to justice.

But I don’t see much of an effort in this regard, do you? Why, when she was prosecutor, did we not hear about this? And why, when the matter was more fresh, were efforts not undertaken to get to the bottom of the purported crime? Families of the potential victims are thinking the same thought:

In Belgrade, the Serbian capital, an association of families of Serbs still listed as missing since the Kosovo war, said it would sue Miss Del Ponte, alleging that she had failed to act over the alleged organ-farming scandal. Serbia’s war crimes office announced it had opened its own investigation.

I am not saying this did or did not happen. It is impossible to know from where I sit. But if it did, and this prosecutor virtually did nothing while she had the power to start an official inquiry—only bringing it out in a book—then I am saying that if it did happen and she did nothing, that too is a moral travesty.
