Former Kosovo president Thaçi seeks bail ahead of Hague verdict

Lawyers for Kosovo's former president, Hashim Thaçi, have asked a war crimes court in The Hague to release him on bail, offering a fifty-thousand-euro bond.

His legal team argues the former political leader poses no flight risk, and that keeping him in detention before a final verdict is no longer reasonable or proportionate.

The Kosovo Specialist Chambers is scheduled to deliver its judgment on the sixteenth of September.
