Surgical procedures of the victims’ bodies were conducted in health centres or hospitals that are used during the war for the treatment of Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) soldiers, according to Saturday's edition of Politika daily.

Daily has learned that these are some of the results of the investigation of the Serbian prosecution for war crimes.

75 patients were admitted from Kosovo at the Clinical Hospital Centre "Mother Teresa" in Tirana during the 1999, while the University Hospital in Skopje, received 70 patients from Kosovo diagnosed with severe renal insufficiency, according to Politika.

Several kidney transplantations have been conducted in Tirana. In the same hospital, out of 75 patients 35 are kept while the others were transported to Italy (25) and Austria (15) where they waited for the transplant.

Serbian prosecutor's office as one of the evidences for claims of existence of organs implies the statement of Dr. Sulejman Kodra, Head of the Department of Transplantation University Hospital "Mother Teresa" in Tirana, who stated for Top News television that cases of transplantation of organs from unknown donors were recorded, however the "surgeons cannot be responsible for this."

It is suspected that there are mass graves on Albanian territory where bodies of the victims were buried, Politika reads.
