APPEAL
July 3, 1999
Dr. Flora Brovina, human right activist from Kosovo,
was arrested and imprisoned on 22 April 1999, by the soldiers of the Serbian intelligence
service. According to the U.N. investigators` records, Dr. Flora Brovina has been
transferred to Serbia, along with other 3000 Albanian political prisoners. The latest
information is that now, she is in the prison hospital of Pozarevac, in a very bad state
of health. Contact to a lawyer, family members or humanitarian workers, has been forbidden
to her.
There is a reasonable fear that the Albanian
political prisoners, among whom are also Albin Kurti, Halil Matoshi and Ukshin Hoti, will
become victims of the Serbian forces` revenge.
We demand that the official republic and federal
authorities immediately release the human right activist Flora Brovina, as well as other
Albanian political prisoners who were transferred from Kosovo to Serbian prisons. Also, we
call for the Yugoslav and international democracy-orientated individuals and institutions
to make pressure on Serbian politicians, in order to achieve our above noted demand.
