Dear Minister,
For the past few days members of the Serbian police in Leskovac have been protesting the arrest of four former members of the 37th Battalion of Special Police Units (SPJ/PJP) of the Ministry of the Interior (MUP) of the Republic of Serbia. Yesterday they were joined by reserve members of the police, all of them wearing T-shirts with photographs of the arrested PJP members printed on the front and a message reading Heroes of the 37th Battalion on the back. Police officers Nenad Stojković, (MUP Serbia Lieutenant-Colonel), Zoran Marković, Dragan Milenković, and Zoran Nikolić were arrested after the Humanitarian Law Center (HLC) filed a criminal complaint against 17 former members of the 37th PJP Battalion on March 2, 2009 and after TV B92 had aired an interview (with proper voice and image distortion) with police officer–witnesses of the crimes which are the subject matter of the criminal complaint.
On 13 March 2009 the internationalized trial chamber of the Kosovo Supreme Court acquitted a Kosovo Albanian Florim Ejupi of all charges in relation to the terrorist attack on the Niš-Ekspress bus, which occurred on 16 February 2001 in the vicinity of Podujevo in which 11 Serbs were killed and ten were wounded “due to lack of evidence.”

On 9 March 2009, the Humanitarian Law Center (HLC) received the judgment of the Bijelo Polje Higher Court brought down on 30 December 2008 that confirms the conviction of Mihajlo Marković rendered by the first instance court in Rožaje.
