Pro European Elected Setback for Nationalists in Bosnian Elections

Voting at a polling station in the village of Hozici in the Republic of Srpska had to be temporarily suspended after the discovery of pre-filled ballot papers at the polling station. The non-governmental organization “Unter der Magnifier” spoke of a serious violation of the electoral law. The chief prosecutor responsible for Hozici in Novi Grad, Mladen Mitrovic, announced that all five members of the electoral committee had been arrested. In Zvornik, also in the Republic of Srpska, according to the chairman of the municipal electoral commission, Mutafa Arifovic, the problems were caused by members of electoral commissions in individual polling stations who simply gave up their duties.
