On Friday, the Presidency of Kosovo stated that no prosecutor had yet been assigned to investigate the death threats made against President Vjosa Osmani.
However, later in the evening, the Special Prosecution of the Republic of Kosovo (PSRK) claimed that a prosecutor had been appointed on Thursday, following a formal report from the Kosovo Police.
This triggered a sharp response from the Presidency, which insisted that on May 22, the Kosovo Police informed them in writing that they were still awaiting the appointment of a prosecutor, despite having visited the Special Prosecution twice that same day.
Bekim Kupina, media advisor to President Osmani, challenged the prosecution’s timeline:
“If a prosecutor was indeed appointed on Thursday, why was the Kosovo Police not informed?”
He emphasized that in a case involving high institutional sensitivity, timely response and transparency are legal obligations, not optional actions:
“Any delay or evasion of responsibility constitutes institutional failure and a violation of constitutional order.”
The Special Prosecution responded by reiterating that the case is being handled with high priority, stating:
“As soon as the report was received, a prosecutor was appointed and police were authorized to act immediately to identify and apprehend those responsible.”
The situation escalated after the Presidency announced Thursday that President Osmani had received a life-threatening message via her official email.
