PRISTINA - Three ethnic Albanians were stopped and brutally beaten in a Pristina street on Wednesday morning by members of the terrorist KLA after picking up new Yugoslav passports issued in the Temporary Executive Council building, said the Subcommittee for Administration and Legal Activities of the Yugoslav Committee for Cooperation with the U.N. Mission in Kosovo and Metohija (UNMIK).
Fadilj Sulja from Pristina, Mehmet Mehmeti from Vlastica near Gnjilane and Emin Muzaci from Bresnica near Vucitrn had just been issued the passport of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, a procedure which began a month ago in the building of the Temporary Executive Council.
Their KLA compatriots tried to convince them by force not to take the Yugoslav passport, but were saved by KFOR and the U.N. police.
The terrorists said, however, that the three would shortly be tried for "the betrayal of their people."
