14th day of blockade of Serb institutions in northern Kosovo: 4 Serb youths placed under house arrest
Employees in temporary municipal bodies, the PIO (state pension) fund, the Office for Kosovo and Metohija - still, 14 days after the beginning of the blockade, are prevented from reaching their workplaces.
Meanwhile, four Serb youths, detained for allegedly attacking the so-called Kosovo police, were put under house arrest for one month. Serbs protested during their questioning.
The blockade of temporary authorities in municipalities in the north of Kosovo and Metohija has been in effect since August 30.
The documentation that was seized by the so-called Kosovo police ended up in the Kosovo Archives Agency, where they say that it is a "significant amount of archival material," Pristina media reports.
Yesterday, Serbs protested in front of the police station, booing and displaying messages reading, "Kurtiland Police," "Let our children go!," "Return our children to us!"
Four young Serb men (three aged 19, one 21) were brutally beaten by the police as they were arrested in Kosovska Mitrovica, and the so-called Kosovo police claim that one of their members was also physically attacked, but did not say how the attack happened.
The young men have been put under house arrest for one month.
On the same day, the prosecution in Pristina issued an indictment in the Banjska case against 45 people. They are charged with alleged "terrorism" - that is, "criminal acts against constitutional order and security, financing of terrorism and money laundering."
