Registry and Chambers:

Jim Landale, Spokesman for Registry and Chambers, made the following statement:

Good afternoon,

I would like to draw your attention to a decision rendered by the Appeals Chamber yesterday on the Prosecution’s interlocutory appeal of the Trial Chamber’s 30 September 2005 decision to grant provisional release to Nebojsa Pavkovic.

In its decision, the Appeals Chamber granted the Prosecution appeal and quashed the Trial Chamber’s decision, remitting the matter to the Trial Chamber for further consideration. The Appeal Chamber’s detailed reasoning is contained in the decision, copies of which will be available to you after this briefing.

Today, the Tribunal is hosting a group of 75 students of journalism from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Montenegro, Croatia, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and Slovenia, some of whom are with us here. The visit has been organised by the Forum for European Journalism Students in conjunction with ICTY Outreach. The group is following court proceedings and will be given presentations on the work of the Tribunal.

In terms of the court schedule:

The judgement in the case against Sefer Halilovic will be rendered on Wednesday 16 November at 10 a.m. in Courtroom III.

In The Prosecutor v. Popovic, Beara, Drago Nikolic, Borovcanin, Tolimir, Miletic, Gvero, Pandurevic and Trbic, the pre-trial judge has ordered that a status conference be held for all accused bar Tolimir, who is still at large, on Thursday 10 November at 2.15 p.m. in Courtroom III.

Pre-trial Judge Agius has also ordered that during the course of the status conference, Popovic, Beara, Nikolic, Borovcanin, Pandurevic and Trbic shall enter pleas of guilty or not guilty to the new charges sought to be included by the Prosecution in the Consolidated Amended Indictment.

In The Prosecutor v. Boskoski and Tarculovski, pre-trial Judge Eser has ordered, among other things, that the Prosecution is to file its pre-trial brief, list of witnesses and list of exhibits to be tendered at trial no later than 7 November 2005; and the Defence is to submit its pre-trial brief no later than 5 December, 2005.

The Milosevic trial next week will be on Wednesday and Thursday morning and on Friday afternoon.

Finally, in the next week or so, there will be status conferences in The Prosecutor v. Stanislav Galic this afternoon at 2.15 p.m. in Courtroom II; in The Prosecutor v. Vojislav Seselj tomorrow at 8 a.m. in Courtroom III; in The Prosecutor v. Rasim Delic tomorrow at 10 a.m. in Courtroom I; and in The Prosecutor v. Prlic et al on 8 November at 12.30 p.m. in Courtroom I.
