The first four witnesses in the trial of Thaci, Jakub Krasniqi, Kadri Veseli and Rexhep Selimi also gave their statements in closed sessions, while the fifth witness testified in some open and some closed cases.
On September 30 of last year, the Specialist Prosecutor's Office filed an indictment against Hashim Thaci, Kadri Veseli, Jakup Krasniqi and Rexhep Selimi, charging them with war crimes and crimes against humanity.
All the accused pleaded not guilty.
