Former Kosovo Assembly Speaker Jakup Krasniqi has refused a medical examination at the detention facility in The Hague and declared that he will no longer accept healthcare from its institutions, according to his daughter, Gresa Krasniqi.

In a social media post, Gresa expressed concern about her father's health following a telephone conversation in which he informed her of his decision.

Jakup Krasniqi, who was sentenced to 25 years in prison by the Kosovo Specialist Chambers in The Hague, reportedly refused to undergo an examination by several doctors, citing dissatisfaction with his treatment in detention.

According to his daughter, Krasniqi said he would no longer accept medical assistance from the relevant institutions because he feels unfairly treated and deprived of his rights.

Gresa expressed particular concern about the decision, given her father's age and healthcare needs.

“How can I ask him to accept the care of those institutions when he feels betrayed by the very justice that was supposed to protect him?” she wrote.

She also described the family's sense of helplessness over the situation and reiterated her support for her father.

“I felt so helpless in the face of this unjust international power. We are here, Dad. We want you strong, we want you healthy,” she stated.

Gresa also criticized the verdict against her father, describing it as an injustice rather than a judicial error.

“My father's sentence is not a mistake waiting to be corrected. It is an injustice,” she concluded.

The claims regarding Krasniqi's refusal of medical care are based on his daughter's account.
