Nevenka Tromp, a former investigator for the Hague Tribunal, has presented her expectations regarding the ruling by the trial panel of the Specialist Chambers for the former senior leaders of the Kosovo Liberation Army.
In an interview with Radio Free Europe, Tromp said the ruling is expected to take the form of a compromise, aimed at meeting the expectations of both the Kosovar and the Serbian sides.

According to her, the outcome will be such that some of the accused will be acquitted, while others will be found guilty and sentenced.
She stressed that it remains to be seen what final combination the court will decide on.
The trial of Hashim Thaçi, Kadri Veseli, Jakup Krasniqi and Rexhep Selimi concluded in February. The judgment had been scheduled to be delivered in May, but the judicial panel decided to postpone it until July 20, citing the “complexity of the case” as the reason for the decision.
The Specialist Chambers also clarified that the date of July 20 does not necessarily mean that the judgment will be delivered then, while also warning of the possibility of another postponement.
