Good afternoon,

v. Rahim Ademi tomorrow at 2.30 p.m. in Courtroom I. The accused

Office of the Prosecution:
Jean-Daniel Ruch for the Office of the Prosecutor
made no statement.
Questions:
A journalist asked for information on the incident between two
of the detainees which took place in the Detention Unit last Sunday.
In his response, Landale stated that he understood that on Sunday
an exchange of words had taken place between the two individuals,
followed by a brief altercation. As soon as prison officers became
aware that something was amiss, they quickly resolved the situation.
In a follow-on question, the journalist enquired about any penalties
which the Tribunal might impose for such behaviour. Landale answered
that that was a matter for the Commander of the Detention Unit.
He could not go into what measures the Commander might take.
He added that the incident was the subject of a filing by the defence
counsel for Rajic before the presiding Judge and the Registrar.
He underlined that the incident was over quickly and that there
was no injury to any party.
