Lazarević’s provisional release was extended twice, on 24 June 2009 and 14 July 2009, on the ground all the requirements under Rule 65(I) of the Rules continued to be met. Lazarević’s third request for extension was dismissed on 4 August 2009 for lack of showing the existence of special circumstances under Rule 65(I)(iii), and of acute justification in particular. All three decisions have reiterated that the criteria required for granting a request for provisional release apply mutatis mutandis to a motion for its extension.
