5/9/2018: BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA – THREATS

Vienna, 5 September 2018

The South East Europe Media Organisation demands a protection and investigation of threats against Dino Jahic, editor-in-chief of the Center for Investigative Journalism of Serbia (CIJS).

In the past days, Jahic and his team have been constantly exposed to insults, as also death threats.

The threats started after a statement issued by the president of Republika Srpska (part of Bosnia and Herzegovina), Milorad Dodik, who attacked the editor-in-chief of CINS on 21 August. Dodik was accusing Jahic of leading a centre that demolishes the political structures in the region.
