President of Bosnia’s Muslim-Croat federation arrested for corruption

[Baluarte]

The president of Bosnia’s autonomous Muslim-Croat federation, Zivko Budimir, has been arrested with 19 others in the most high-profile anti-corruption operation since independence in 1992.

Local media had previously reported that he had accepted bribes in exchange for granting amnesty to a number of convicts.

Police sources said 10 government officials were arrested in the offices of the regional government but the remainder were suspected drug traffickers.

They said one of the traffickers had previously been pardoned by Budimir.

Federation Vice President Mirsad Kebo says he had earlier asked the Constitutional Court to begin an investigation into the legality of certain amnesties over the past two years.

Budimir is at the centre of a political crisis that began in the federation last year.

He is refusing to approve a regional government reshuffle and is delaying the appointment of judges to the Constitutional Court.

More firepower to the secessionists of Republika Srpska.

Bosnia court detains Bosniak-Croat President Zivko Budimir


A Bosnian court has ordered the president of the autonomous Bosniak-Croat Federation to be detained for a month on corruption charges.

Zivko Budimir was arrested on Friday along with at least 17 others.

On Sunday, prosecutors said Mr Budimir and four other officials had taken bribes to arrange pardons for convicts. They demanded his detention in case he tried to flee the country.

Lawyers for the accused said they would appeal against the ruling.

The court said it was detaining Mr Budimir and his co-accused aide, Petar Barisic, because of the danger of flight.

Mr Budimir's Party of Justice and Trust has accused state prosecutors of "meddling in politics".

It has described his arrest as a "show of strength put on for the sake of the public".

The Bosniak-Croat Federation, together with the Republika Srpska, make up Bosnia-Herzegovina. Each has its own president, government, parliament, police and other bodies.

Bosnia was split into two autonomous regions - joined by a relatively weak central government - under a US-brokered peace deal that ended the 1992-95 war.
