In Sarajevo, a man identified as Adis Prljača was arrested for attempted murder in the Vratnik neighborhood. The arrest followed a stabbing on October 24 that inflicted life-threatening injuries on Enes Kozić. This attack occurred after a separate incident on October 23 where Prljača allegedly used a baseball bat to destroy vehicles owned by Enes and Emir Kozić in Višegradska kapija street.

Although police initially detained Prljača for the property damage, he was released shortly after. Following the subsequent knife attack, he was re-arrested on Sunday afternoon and is now facing charges of attempted murder. An investigation into the circumstances of the attack is ongoing.
