Three initiatives for reconsidering the constitutionality of the authentic interpretation of the amnesty law are awaiting Constitutional Court judges upon the end of their summer recess. The initiatives were submitted to the Constitutional Court by the families of the 12 Macedonians kidnapped in 2001, the association Nadez (Hope) and certain Aleksandar Petrusevski, who says is a member of VMRO-DPMNE.

In the initiative that the families of the kidnapped filed on 28 July, it is said that the authentic interpretation of the law breached four articles of the Constitution and the main arguments are that military crimes and crimes against humanity can never become time-barred.
