[L-I] The Law on Rights of the Hague indictees: politicaly good, financialy bad

      THE DECISIVE BATTLE FOR TRUTH NEEDS YOUR HELP NOW!
     

Serbian Parliament passed today the Law on Rights of ICTY Indictees Detained at The Hague and of Their Families. It is considered as a positive political move, since the state started in concrete terms to respect the Constitutional obligation to protect the rights of its citizens facing legal need abroad.

The Law provides the Hague detainees and their families with very modest financial assistance (compensation of the salaries for those who were employed in Serbia, travel costs for visits of the family members, around 170 EUR for phone calls per month etc.).

The Law also gives right to detainees to get expenses covered for the work of TWO lawyers (legal advisers or assistants) in accordance with the tarif of the Serbian Bar (if these expenses are not covered by ICTY). This will be more precisely ragulated by an additional Government act which has to be adopted within two weeks. First estimate sais that this would mean arround 5000 EUR per lawyer and per month.

In a case of such unprecedented volume as the process of President Milosevic, this is apparently insuficient and can only demotivate some donors. 

Our call for donations can only be intensified now.

Please help now before its too late!
