Amnesty International is concerned about the "disappearance" of Hajredin Halimi, born 1954, on 7 August 2001, and is seeking information from the Macedonian authorities about a "special committee" investigating the case and urging the Macedonian authorities to bring the perpetrators to justice. Five years after the "disappearance" of Hajredin Halimi, and with the Minister of the Internal Affairs reiterating his claim that an investigation on the case of Hajredin Halimi is being carried out, Amnesty International is taking action to urge him to bring the perpetrators to justice.
