The highest court in Bosnia suspends the separatist laws adopted by Bosnian Serbs | News of the conflict
The laws adopted by the Autonomous Region Republika Srpska rejects the powers of the federal police and the judiciary.
The Constitutional Court in Bosnia suspended the legislation adopted by the autonomous region of the Republic of Srpska, which in its territory rejected the power of federal police and justice.
On Friday, the court said that he “temporarily suspended” by laws president of Bosnian Serbian Milorad Dodik pushed through the Regional Parliament earlier this week.
The laws were adopted for days after the Sarajevo Court sentenced Dodik to one year in prison and forbidden his post for six years for rejection in accordance with the decisions of Christian Schmidt – an international high representative who was charged with supervision of peacetime agreements on Bosnia.
Since the end of the inter-ethnic conflict in Bosnia in the 1990s, the country consisted of two autonomous regions-replies of Serbian and the Federation of Muslim Busty, which is associated with the weak central government.
Bosnian officials say that Dodik’s laws are breaking the Dayton peace agreement that ended the war in the country in 1992-95, binding on two entities under joint institutions, including the military, top courts and tax authorities.
Dodik said on Thursday that he would ignore a call from the Bosnian prosecutors who investigated him for the alleged adhesion of the country’s constitutional order.
On Friday, he doubled on his separatist facility, urging ethnic Serbs to leave federal police forces and courts and joined the Government of Republika Srpska.
“We have provided them with the job, keeping their legal status, ranks and positions. They will receive the same salary or even a higher salary than they had, “Dodik said.
Dodik later added that there were no plans for violent escalation, but insisted that Republika Srpska had “the ability to defend himself, and we will do it.”
Local media reported on Friday that the Bosnian Serbian Republic police forced the Federal Agency of the State Information and Protection Agency (SIPA) from their premises in the City of Banja Luka.
But the head of Sipa Darko Culum later marked the reports incorrect, insisting that the security situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina was “stable and calm”.
The situation in Republika Srpska remained tense on Friday.
AND Srrenica Memorial Center – where most of the 8,000 victims were buried in July 1995 killed by the ethnic forces of the SRBBA – said it closed its doors “until further notice”, stating the uncertainty launched by the current political crisis.
“This decision was made due to the inability to ensure appropriate security guarantees for our employees, associates, guests and visitors,” said the Center, located in the village of Potocari, in an online statement.
