This was the 35th protest in Decani since the five were arrested in
June this year.
The verdict was passed by three international judges at the
Pristina District Court.
The organisers of the protests demand the unconditional release of
the convicts and the discontinuation of all trials against former
Kosovo Liberation Army members. They claim that the trials were
"rigged" by the UN Mission in Kosovo.
