Bosnia and Herzegovina fatal traffic accident prosecutions

Overview

In Bosnia and Herzegovina, prosecutors are pursuing legal action in two distinct cases involving fatal traffic accidents.

In one case, prosecutor Nemanja Sladoje has requested a prison sentence of three to 15 years for Miloš Abazović, who is alleged to have been driving under the influence of alcohol and narcotics when he caused the death of journalist Goran Maunaga and injured four others. The defense has contested the indictment, arguing it fails to prove intent.

In a second matter, the Federal Prosecutor's Office of FBiH has referred a criminal report to the Livno Canton Prosecutor's Office concerning traffic expert Franja Zovko. Zovko is accused of providing false testimony regarding a fatal accident on the Mostar-Čapljina road that resulted in the deaths of Almin Crnalić, Enis Kurtović, and Dalila Žugor. The report alleges that Zovko’s expert findings lacked material evidence and contradicted other forensic assessments.
