The 36 graves of Rahovec accuse

Truths about the crimes are being concealed The truth about the unprecedented Serbian massacres in Rahovec and other crimes in Kosovo is being blocked. The Albanian press in Kosovo reported around 36 mass graves containing more than 500 people executed without trial and in horrific ways, but the Serbian police deny everything. This tragedy also appears to be covered up by European Union observers, who have stated that they found no evidence to confirm this massacre. The numerous photographs published in the Albanian press and the foreign reports do not constitute any evidence for the EU. Albanian newspapers expressed their utmost concern over the bullet sent in an envelope to the EU minor, Ms. Cea, focusing on a concrete piece of evidence: a mysterious envelope. But the EU’s highest officials were more preoccupied with the Cea affair than with the unheard-of tragedy of 500 Albanians buried in a pit together with dead horses and cows. Continued on page 3
