B92 organ trade investigation turns to UNMIK official
BELGRADE - Tonight�s episode of B92�s Reaction
uncovers why a criminal complaint was brought against
former head of the UNMIK Missing Persons Office Jose
Pablo Baraybar.
In the episode, the Reaction team continues its
investigation into the claims of former Hague Chief
Prosecutor Carla Del Ponte that a number missing
Kosovo non-Albanians were transported to Albania to
have their organs harvested for sale on the black
market.
In the last episode, the team uncovered, for the first
time, the contents of an UNMIK report compiled after
an investigation in February 2004 of the yellow house
in the Albanian town of Burrel, in which Baraybar took
part.
The UNMIK Office headed by Baraybar in 2004 ran, at
the time, all activities linked to finding missing
persons, while he himself was accused of illegal
handling of human body parts.
�It�s well known that if you take a part of someone�s
body, you need to have the consent of the parents, but
on one occasion the UNMIK Office Chief Jose Pablo
Baraybar committed a crime by helping himself to a
bone sample for the purposes of his own research and
benefit,� claims Hisni Berisha of the Suva Reka
Association of Missing Persons� Families.
�We asked him � why are you taking it? At first he
didn�t say anything, then he said, "I�ll never tell
you, what�s it to you that I�m taking it?� recalls
Tefik Gashi, a pathologist from Pristina.
A letter from the Belgrade War Crimes Prosecutor�s
Office states that Baraybar had a number of criminal
complaints against his name, including from Serb and
Bosniak missing persons� associations.
Baraybar, whom the Reaction team was able to track
down in Denver, denied the family�s allegations when
interviewed over the phone.
�Yeah, there are a number of people who took advantage
of those families and told them stories how I�ve got
some sort of collection of bones somewhere, and that
I�m involved in the organ trade. That�s nothing new to
me,� he said.
....
The Prosecution�s letter states that because of
Baraybar�s reputation, there is a danger that he could
personally or indirectly see to it that evidence
uncovered in the yellow house and stored, according to
UNMIK information, in Orahovac, is removed.
In tonight's episode, to be screened at 21:00 CET,
viewers can hear what material evidence was discovered
at the scene and where, according to Baraybar, it is
located today.
Viewers will also hear whether tunnels around the
frontier belt between Albania and Kosovo were used as
illegal holding units for abducted non-Albanians and
what the parents had to go through, who, in their
search for their loved ones, had to travel to Albania.
