International Arrest Warrant Issued against Guri

The Criminal Court in Skopje has issued an international arrest warrant against former Public Revenue Office Director Ismet Guri. Guri was in house arrest, but last Friday, when police officers went to his home for a regular control, they did not find him there.

Guri was found guilty in the Titanic 3 case for electoral fraud and destruction of electoral materials, and after the trial for the case was restarted, he was found guilty once again and was given a prison sentence of 3.5 years. Since his arrest he was staying in detention, which was then changed to house arrest due to his worsened health condition.
