In order to fulfil this task, EULEX Judges and Prosecutors, shall retain certain executive responsibilities by working together with the local counterparts in mixed panels or mixed teams, ensuring that cases of war crimes, terrorism, organised crime, corruption, inter-ethnic crimes, financial/economic crimes and other serious crimes are properly investigated, prosecuted, adjudicated and enforced, according to the applicable law (Joint Action 2008/124/CFSP on the European Union Rule of Law Mission in Kosovo, EULEX KOSOVO; Law No. 03/L-053 “On the Jurisdiction, Case Selection and Case Allocation of EULEX Judges and Prosecutors in Kosovo”; Law No. 03/L-052 “On the Special Prosecution Office of the Republic of Kosovo”).
