Haradinaj has not been arrested, said spokeswoman Susan Manuel. She
added that he was accused of having endangered the lives of others
during crimes committed in the Pec region in July 2000.
An indictment against Haradinaj was filed with indictments against
six other persons, ex-KLA members who were recently arrested and
placed in custody. Among them is Haradinaj's brother Daut.
In an interview with Voice of America on Monday evening, Haradinaj
dismissed the accusations against him as unfounded and resembling
methods used by the Slobodan Milosevic regime against Kosovo
Albanians.
Haradinaj said he and the Alliance for Kosovo's Future advocated
the building of a law-based society which did not tolerate crime.
