PRISTINA -- Tuesday – About a thousand former members of the Kosovo Liberation Army protested yesterday in Pristina, demanding that the Hague Tribunal release former guerrilla commander Fatmir Limaj.
After a peaceful protest march through the centre of the Kosovo capital, the former guerrillas gathered outside the Languages Faculty of Pristina University to read a letter demanding that the tribunal and the international community release Limaj.
International police troops secured all entrances to the UN administration in the province and the Kosovo Assembly building during the protest, which passed without incident.
Limaj is charged, together with Isak Musliu and Haradin Bala with war crimes in the Lapusnik prison camp in Kosovo.
The Serbs know that they will see no justice from the international sector.
Kosovo will only see peace and justice when the Serb army returns.

The Hague Tribunal found Fatmir Limaj and Isak Musliu not guilty, whereas Haradin Balaj was sentenced to 13 years in prison.
There you have it. Part of what he was indicted for was murdering other Albanians - Albanians who didn't agree with the KLA, were deemed as rivals, or suspected as cooperating with Serbian authorities.
I'll try to feign surprise at this outcome.
