Serbia’s legal representative at The Hague tribunal Sasa Obradovic has sent a letter to the court informing them that there has been a small delay in the submission of a report on the efforts that Serbia is making in handling the request for the arrest and extradition of three members of the Serbian Radical Party (SRS) charged by the tribunal with contempt of court.
Obradovic said in the letter that as soon as he received information that the preliminary proceedings judge at the Higher Court in Belgrade had issued a decision in accordance with the law on cooperation with the tribunal, he would communicate them to the tribunal’s secretariat so that preparations for the beginning of the relevant process before the Trial Chamber could begin in time.
Obradovic is sending the letter to honor the verbal order of the tribunal’s trial chamber of February 10 this year, under which Serbia is to deliver to the chamber a report on its efforts to comply with orders from January 2015 every two weeks.
The orders concern the arrest and extradition of Peter Jojic, Jovo Ostojic and Vjerica Radeta, the SRS members accused of contempt of court.
