Milijana Mitrovic, one of Carla del Ponte's sources for facts about death camps where Serbs were stripped of their organs, claims that Romanians, Russians, Ukrainians, Greeks and Arabs were also tortured.

BELGRADE - Albanian is not just a "blue tomb" for Serbs and Serbs abducted from Kosovo and Metohija were not the only ones whose organs were harvested. White slaves from Romania, Moldavia, Russia, the Ukraine, Greece, Montenegro, the Arab countries, etc. were also used for this purpose. The highest political leaders in Albania were involved in the affair, as well as Kosovo Liberation Army commanders and representatives of KFOR and UNMIK, Milijana Mitrovic testified in a statement for "Kurir". She said she was one of Carla del Ponte's sources of information regarding death camps in Albanian and in Kosovo and Metohija.

Ms. Mitrovic claimed that she saw these camps and learned a lot about crimes thanks to her friendship with an influential Albanian businessman. However, when she told official Serbian authorities about this in 2002, no one wanted to hear what she had to say. Moreover, some of them even threatened her and told her to remain quiet, and sent police representatives to question and harass her.

"The Albanians brought prostitutes from various countries to entertain the members of UNMIK and KFOR. When they no longer needed them, they would take them to Albania to harvest their organs. There were camps in Kukesh, Elbasan, Flora and Drach; the "yellow house" where their organs were removed was in Tirana. The Americans, Germans and English participated in this," emphasized Mitrovic.

She said that the healthiest males up to age 45 were picked out from among the imprisoned Serbs from Kosovo and Metohija, and transferred to U.S. military bases abroad, especially in Germany and Italy. Allegedly two missing Serb men from Kosovo and Metohija were seen in the U.S. base in Wiesbaden. She didn't know what was done with the abducted Serbs in those bases but there are indications that they were used as guinea pigs.

"Anyone who tried to escape would end up under the knife together with the others who were taken to the camps in Albania. Current and former Albanian premiers Sali Berisha and Fatos Nano were involved with the blessing of Bernard Kouchner, former UNMIK head and currently French foreign minister, a physician. Also involved were Ramush Haradinaj and his brother Daut, Agim Cheku and Hashim Thaci, as well as Halim Omer Osmani, Muhamed Luti, Enes Elmazi," recounted Mitrovic.

She said that in 2001 and 2002 some Serbian politicians, primarily belonging from the opposition at that time, were collecting money for finding the kidnapped Serbs. The final sum was several hundred thousand German marks; through the intercession of U.S. CIA Lieutenant-Colonel Michael Shaw the money was given to a certain Kosovo Albanian. The Kosovo Albanian learned a lot but he was caught and killed, said Mitrovic.

CARLA'S BOOK IS EVIDENCE AGAINST HER

Simo Spasic, president of the Association of Kidnapped and Abducted Civilians, Soldiers and Police from Kosovo and Metohija, said that Milijana Mitrovic told then what she knew several years ago but they could not believe her. However, Carla del Ponte's Book "The Hunt: Me and the War Criminals" convinced them that she was telling the truth.

"We finally received del Ponte's book from Italy and it states how many Serbs were transferred to Italy, and where their vital organs, intended for sale throughout Europe and America, were removed. The book will serve as evidence in our case against her because she hid the crimes while serving as Hague prosecutor. During a meeting with us in 2004 she told that our relatives and loved ones had all been killed but she didn't mention that they had been stripped of their organs," emphasized Spasic. In his opinion, del Ponte calculatingly chose to reveal this after the criminals had proclaimed Kosovo's independence.

"If she had published this only four or five years ago, no country in the world would have recognized such a criminal state. The generals of the so-called KLA would be in The Hague for their command responsibility," emphasized Spasic.
