Dear readers, brace yourselves for a political storm shaking the Republic of Srpska! The Mayor of Banja Luka, Draško Stanivuković, is not holding back and has announced he will file a criminal complaint against the President of the Republic of Srpska, Milorad Dodik. Yes, you read that right! Stanivuković claims that Dodik has humiliated the Serbian people with his actions and is knowingly violating laws clearly defined as criminal offenses by the National Assembly of the Republic of Srpska.
What’s going on?
Dodik handed himself over to the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina in Sarajevo after defying judicial institutions for three months. Although his detention was lifted, he was ordered to periodically report to the police. Stanivuković calls this move a political and institutional explosion aimed against the highest legislative body of the entity.
Why does it matter?
A year of struggle, protests, pressure, and even threats to workers – all of it, according to Stanivuković, was wiped out by one submissive act of the Bosnian judiciary. He believes Dodik’s actions humiliate the Serbian people and send a message that laws do not apply to him.
What do the laws say?
The National Assembly of the Republic of Srpska clearly defines disrespecting its laws as a criminal offense. However, President Dodik, according to Stanivuković, knowingly violates these laws, leading to the criminal complaint. This is not just a legal issue but a matter of political responsibility and respect for institutions.
Reactions and consequences
This move by the Mayor of Banja Luka could spark a political storm in the Republic of Srpska and beyond. Will the judiciary finally stand up to Dodik’s actions? Or will the politics of lawlessness and ignoring laws continue?
Conclusion
This is not just another political story – it’s a fight for the rule of law and the dignity of the Serbian people. As the legal team finalizes the criminal complaint, everyone is watching what happens next. Will Dodik be held accountable, or will he continue to ignore institutions?
