Vojin Mijatović faces indictment for suspected abuse of authority
An indictment has been filed against Vojin Mijatović, a former federal minister, by the Special Department for Combating Corruption and Organized Crime. The charges involve suspected abuse of position or authority regarding the allocation of budget funds.
The Social Democratic Party of Bosnia and Herzegovina (SDP BiH) has responded to the legal proceedings, stating that while no one is above the law, the timing of the indictment is highly suspicious. The party noted that the announcement occurs immediately before the start of the election campaign, suggesting it carries significant political weight. SDP BiH emphasized that Mijatović is entitled to a fair trial and full defense, and they refuse to allow the unconfirmed indictment to serve as a political judgment before a court reaches a verdict.
