Today, a mixed panel of Kosovo and EULEX judges of the District Court of Pejë/Pec found M.K. guilty of unauthorised possession of weapons and sentenced him to one (1) year of imprisonment. He had entered a plea of guilty to this prior to the main trial.

The court ordered confiscation and destruction of the weapon.

M.K. was acquitted of aggravated murder and grievous bodily harm as the court found that there was not enough evidence to prove that he had committed these charges.

The prosecution was represented by a EULEX prosecutor.
