Deputy Ministers of Justice, Daut Xhemajli and Abdul Ymeri, as well as the Director of THE Kosovo Probation Service (KPS), Metije Ademi, organized an informative and awareness meeting with regional directors of this service.

At the meeting, Deputy Ministers and the Director of KPS informed the directors of regional centers for the visit made in Albania and the experiences obtained regarding the electronic monitoring of alternative sentences.

Moreover, it was highlighted that encouraging alternative sentencing as a measure of the replacement of prison sentences is considered successful for the re-integration and re-education of people into society, as one more chance to the delinquent persons to re-socialize and return as equal members of society, without going to jail.

It was also said that the electronic monitoring of alternative sanctions is the most efficient method to monitor the re-socialization of persons sentenced to such penalties.
Directors of regional centers presented their work activities and challenges in these directorates.

As known, KPS has five regional centers in Prishtina, Mitrovica, Peja, Prizren and Gjilan. Such centers are soon expected to open in Ferizaj and Gjakova.
