The State Electoral Commission invalidated his candidacy as he had not fulfilled the requirement that all presidential candidates live in the country for 15 consecutive years prior to nominating.On 2 March 2002, at approximately 4:00 a.m. local time, seven allegedly armed militants, six of them being Pakistani citizens and another being an Indian citizen, were shot dead in Raštanski Lozja near the village of Ljuboten, close to the Macedonian border with Serbia. The men were shot by the Lions.(an elite special operations tactical unit formed after the 2001 Macedonia conflict in order to aid against acts of terrorism and for emergency deployment in rural combat areas) Ljube Boškoski, whom many believe ordered the killings, denies the allegations made by the media and the victims' families.

A court of law acquitted 4 members of the Macedonian security forces, who were tried as a result of the incident; the court ruled that the killings were not a staged act.Boškoski was detained in Croatia in August 2004, after he was stripped of parliamentary immunity by Macedonia. In December of that year, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) published an indictment against him and Johan Tarčulovski.In March 2005, he was transferred to the ICTY in The Hague. Boškoski and Tarčulovski were charged with violations of the laws or customs of war during the 2001 Macedonia conflict — a "civil war" between ethnic Albanian members of the NLA and the Macedonian security forces such as the Wolves in 2001, during which, Boškoski was Minister of Internal Affairs.According to the indictment, between Friday 10 August 2001, and Sunday 12 August 2001, a land offensive was launched by Macedonian security forces against ethnic Albanian civilians and property in Ljuboten, a predominantly Albanian village.According to the tribunal, Boškoski, in his capacity as Minister of the Interior, "had de jure and de facto command and control over the members of the police forces which took part in the alleged crimes."
