Belgrade, April 25 (Tanjug) - Albanians from Kosovo and Metohia who fled NATO bombs into neighboring Albania are recruited by force in the territory of that state, sent to training centers, and then forced in groups to charge across the Yugoslav border, said one ethnic Albanian who experienced this.

Terrorist KLA in the territory of Albania wait for refugees from Kosovo and Meothia, separate men from their families who then undergo training with the aid of Albanian army officers to be sent as cannon fodder into Yugoslav territory, said in front of cameras of the Serbian Radio and Television (RTS)one ethnic Albanian who was captured by Pristina corps special units who clashed with his group while attempting to penetrate from Albania into Yugoslav territory.

"With my mother and two brothers I left to Albania as a refugee. We were stopped by KLA members in the territory of Albania. One of them took me out from the bus and led me to the barracks. As soon as we arrived to Kalinasa barracks we were equipped with uniform and arms and immediately started with training", witnessed that ethnic Albanian.

The forcibly recruited refugees, trained in a camp in Albania, were taken in three groups on April 14 from their training camp in Albania and their commanding officers, the ethnic Albanian testified, were Raslji Hodza and two Albanian army officers Ramadan and Fadilj. Albanian army officers took the three groups in the direction of Kosare, deployed them there, from where they were ordered to penetrate onto Yugoslav territory, the ethnic Albanian said.

RTS cameras in the border area with Albania recorded a part of action of Pristina corps special units in routing a group of Albanian terrorists which tried to intrude into the Yugoslav territory.
