I presume Haradinaj would explain his "duty as a citizen" is to Kosovo, not Serbia. Since they were incorporated into Serbia by conquest in 1912, most of the Kosovar Albanians have considered Serb rule as illegitimate. There has been on-again, off-again fighting between Kosovars & Serbs for the last 100+ years and the Kosovar Albanians declared independence from Serbia more than once; most recently in 1991 (IIRC).

Haradinaj then claims that documents submitted to ICTY are fabrications

I don't know and you don't either. In due time we'll see.

claims that Serbian Government has committed genocide in Kosovo.

Ethnic cleansing, yes. But genocide, I don't think so. The ICTY did not charge anyone for genocide in Kosovo either.

And this delusion has to be supported by International community. Suppose a bunch of Mexican American thugs in Texas considered US rule illegitimate and start killing USPS personnel, US forrest rangers and start killing and torturing fellow Mexican Americans to coerce others to support them?

Could they claim it was their "duty of a citizen".

Such lunacy would be more logical - Texas was once part of Mexico and Kosovo was NEVER part of Albania.
