A mixed panel of one EULEX judge and two local judges, presided over by a EULEX judge at the Supreme Court, ordered a retrial against seven defendants charged with extortion and contracting a disproportionate profit from property.

The Supreme Court panel approved the appeal of the public prosecutor and annulled the verdict of the District Court of Prizren sending the case back for retrial.

The defendants S.N., M.K., T.K., S.K., V.K., A.B. charged for the criminal offence of extortion and N.K. charged for the criminal offence of contracting a disproportionate profit from property, were all acquitted by the first instance court.

The case was prosecuted by a Kosovo public prosecutor from the District of Prizren.
