5 Introduction speech of former-chief State Prosecutor, Mr. Ismet Kabashi in the event of opening solemn ceremony of Crime Victims` Rights Week Dear attendees, Allow me to cordially thank you on behalf of State Prosecutor for your participation in this significant event for the rights of Crime Victims, with the motto 1 week awareness and 365 service Dear all Crime Victims` Rights are rights that are guaranteed with the Constitution and legislation of the Republic of Kosovo. Victims` Rights are part of the basic rights, and as such they shall be protected by the State. Crime Victims` Rights are recognized by international instruments as well, including the United Nations Declaration of Basic Principles of Justice for Victims of Crime and Abuse of Powers, which presents best international practices for treatment of Crime Victims. International community has acknowledged that victims of crime enjoy the rights for proper treatment and access in the justice mechanisms, and it also recognizes the liability of the perpetrator to provide the fair restitution for the victim. In this regard as well, Kosovo has established tracking mechanisms for ensuring that the advocacy of human rights, namely right of victims of crime in Kosovo, have the proper and effective treatment. In Kosovo, Victim Advocacy Service was initially focused in victims of traffic, as provided by UNMIK Regulation No. 200/14, and later on it was committed to provide active advocacy for victims of domestic violence and victims of sexual abuse. During 2011, Ministry of Justice has transferred the Division for Victims Advocacy and Assistance in the Office of Chief State Prosecutor. In the respective capacity, role of the Victim Advocate has expanded in order to be in compliance with the new Criminal Procedure Code of Kosovo, which has entered into force in January, State Prosecutor, in order to adjust the new competencies as provided by the Criminal Code of Kosovo, and in order to provide more effective advocacy of the rights of victims and providing access to justice, has undertaken concrete actions in order to have the transfer of these competencies, including the approval of the new Regulation on Internal Organization of the Office, approval of Standard Operating Procedures, upon which is defined the unique practical implementation of the Standard Procedures throughout all territory of Kosovo; and it has also prepared Declaration of Damages for victims of crime, in compliance with article 218 of CPC, where during the investigation stage or within sixty (60) days of the filing of the indictment, the injured party may file a simple declaration of damage from the charged criminal offence. Victim Advocate may support the injured party in submitting the Declaration of Damage.

6 State Prosecutor in accordance with the competencies has the readiness to fairly represent victims of crime in the justice system in Kosovo. Thank you for your attention Introduction: Mr.Basri KASTRATI, Manager of the Victims Advocacy and Assistance Office After the war, Kosovo did not have any particular mechanism that would deal with representation of the interests of the victims of crime in the justice system during the judicial procedure; until 2002 in Kosovo were working only some Non-Governmental Organizations that were representing the interests of the victims of crime in the justice system during the judicial procedure, but their access was pretty limited and there was no institutional mechanism that would deal with interests of victims. Therefore, within the Department of Justice of that time and with the support of the American Office and OSCE, in 2002, and later with the establishment of local institutions, in the Ministry of Justice was established the Division for Victims Advocacy and Assistance, in order to represent victims of crime [domestic violence, human trafficking, sexual abuses, rapes, etc.], in the judicial procedures. In the beginning of the respective work there was trained the first generation by international staff in 2002/2003 with a modest staff from 11 Victim Advocates, and 8 resident Victim Advocates who were assigned to work in the high risk shelter for cases of human trafficking. Afterwards, number of cases was increasing more and more and there emerged the need to have additional prepared staff, so in 2004/2005 there were two more new generations of locals who obtained knowledge on best local and international practices, and representation of cases, and most of those are still working for VAAOs.

7 Within the office functions the Assisting Line as well, which is in the service free of charge for all parties and possible victims seeking any advice or information for their rights, and the respective free of charge line is: , accessible from VALA and IPKO. In 2011 upon a Memorandum of Understanding between Ministry of Justice and Chief State Prosecutor, Victims Advocate Office was transferred in the State Prosecutor, and now it functions as a central Office with 7 Regional Offices, with a staff from a total from 37 Officers; and now with the new amendments of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Republic of Kosovo, as well as upon the organizing and legal structure, Victim Advocate has a meritorious place in the criminal justice system in Kosovo, and this has taken place thanks to the readiness of the Chief State Prosecutor with the managerial staff of the Office of State Prosecutor, as well as representatives of American Embassy in Kosovo, who have assisted with the drafting of the Regulation on the Mandate, Structure and Function of VAAOs, and Guideline on Standard Operating Procedures in order to have this Office as professional and active in the proper treatment and representation of victims in the procedure, in accordance with their mandate. Therefore, VAAO shall be the strongest voice in serving crime victims; in order to have them treated with respect and dignity during all judicial procedures. VAAO works for a brighter future, for not having violence and crime. History of the VICTIMS ADVOCACY AND ASSISTANCE OFFICE [VAAO] Establishment of the Victims Advocacy and Assistance Office derives from the authority and mandate of Human Rights as provided by the UNMIK Regulation no. 1999/01 issued on 25 th of July, 1999, which was amended by the Provisional Authority of Kosovo and UNMIK Regulation no. 2000/15 regarding the Establishment of the Administrative Department of Justice, which has monitored the Coordinator`s Office for Assistance of Victims that was established by the UNMIK Regulation no. 2001/4 on Preventing Human Trafficking in Kosovo, UNMIK Regulation no. 2003/12 on Protection against Domestic Violence.

24 Brochure from the Crime Victims` Rights Week Year 2012 A practical case from the work of Victim Advocate from Region of Peja: On from the Police Station in Peja, namely Regional Investigation Unit of Domestic Violence, I have been informed through the stand-by phone line that a victim N.N. has went to the Police Station for reporting a domestic violence case. Following the call, Victim Advocate has contacted the Driver of VAAO through the stand-by phone line, and has arrived at the Police Station. As soon as the Victim Advocate has arrived in the respective place, the introduction to the victim N.N has taken place and afterward the Victim Advocate has carried on with explaining to the victim services we provide, and the victims` rights that are guaranteed from the applicable legislation in the Republic of Kosovo. Following our explanations, victim N.N. upon her own free will has declared about the bitter experience of hers, caused by her husband, and then she has freely stated that she does not feel safe to return at her house, where she has lived before. Afterwards, with her consent CPWC in Peja has been contacted, and with Officers in charge in the named Center, have taken place discussions about the temporary accommodation of the victim in the shelter, and with ours and Police escort, victim N.N. was accommodated in the shelter in Peja. Afterwards, Victim Advocate has visited the victim N.N. in the shelter and has talked to her about providing our legal services, the Law on Domestic Violence was explained, as well as protective measures incorporated in the latest, and then the victim upon her free will has decided that she wants to have the Request for Protection Order. Victim Advocate has drafted the request for Protection Order and the same was submitted to the Basic Court in Peja. The Court, by respecting the legal deadline has summoned the main trial, and has invited respective parties for the hearing session, and following the closure of the main trial the Court has issued the Decision on Protection Order, upon which for the Victim and her juvenile

25 daughter was allowed the returning at the joint spousal residence, where they have lived before. After receiving the decision, the victim has tried with the Police escort to return to live in the joint spousal residence, but she has encountered with a resistance from her husband who was refusing her return at home. Police arrested her husband and kept him in 48 hours detention, but the victim with her daughter were afraid to return at their home where they have lived before, because as the victim stated, the house was registered on behalf of the brother of her husband, whereas at the same house were living a brotherin-law with her husband`s sister, and with the Police escort the victim returned to the Police Station, and afterwards through the Center for protection of Women and Children in Peja, she has returned to the shelter to stay there until a more suitable solution for her would be found. Seeing this situation, Victim Advocate in the following days has contacted Municipal Bodies of Peja and has discussed with them, explaining the situation in which the victim was, as well as her needs. Discussions of the Victim Advocate with the Municipal Bodies of Peja have resulted successful, in which case Municipal Assembly has ensured a donation in amount from 100 Euros per month, for paying the rent of the apartment for the domestic violence victim N.N., rented through Habitat. Victim Advocate in the continuation has instructed and accompanied the victim in the Free Legal Assistance Agency as well, through which Agency and its Officers in charge, namely the Lawyer recruited by Kosovo Chamber of Advocates, was drafted the divorce claim for the victim, while the Victim Advocate has accompanied the victim in the divorce session, too, providing thus legal assistance, whereas later the victim N.N. was accompanied and in Social Welfare Center, too, for preparing the respective social documents, which has ended successfully for the victim, as provided by the Law on enjoying social aids. Victim N.N. currently carries on to live with her juvenile daughter in the rented apartment from the Municipality of Peja, under the monitoring of relevant Institutions. Case was prepared by the Victim Advocate, Ms. Zumreta Bashiq. Office of Peja Region
