A critical statement from @HelsinkiComm amid mounting regime harassment on the @SrebrenicaMC by the Sino-Russian backed authorities in Banja Luka. Congressional oversight of Bosnia and the region is presently of the utmost importance, ensuring stability and physical security.
Remembering Srebrenica UK is deeply concerned by the statement issued by @suljagicemir1, Director of the Srebrenica Memorial Centre, warning of a possible police operation against the Centre and further action against him personally.
Da ne bi bilo nesporazuma, @SrebrenicaMC će od sutra ujutro do kraja ove sedmice raditi sa apsolutnim minimumom osoblja. Krajem sedmice planiram obaviti razgovor sa svim zaposlenima i zajednički donijeti odluku o tome da li ćemo privremeno zatvoriti Memorijal. Nismo kriminalci i odbijamo da budemo tretirani kao kriminalci. Nećemo sarađivati sa bilo kim osim državnim institucijama, niti ćemo ovoj bjelodanoj zloupotrebi moći svojom saradnjom pružiti legitimitet. Ovo nije legitimna istraga. Tzv. MUP Rs nije legitimna policijska agencija. Ako žele upasti u MCS, slobodno, ali mi nećemo biti tu. Ako žele ući u Memorijal, moraće provaliti, kao zločinci kakvi i jesu.|
Memorijalni centar Srebrenica povlači zaposlenike s radnih mjesta: Nemamo povjerenje u policiju https://t.co/bB8MUzmxLA
Dear friends,
Unfortunately, the Srebrenica Memorial Center continues to be targeted by the corrupt Bosnian Serb police and judiciary.
I know for a fact that a plan is being prepared to raid the Memorial Center. I am not privy to the operational details, but I know the plan exists. I understand that it would involve special police units and Bosnian Serb TV cameras.
The operation appears to have two objectives: first, to discredit and intimidate the Memorial Center; and second, to put me in prison and subject me to years of politically motivated proceedings.
The only way we can fight back is by bringing this into the open. Transparency is our only protection - and, ultimately, our only means of survival in such an adversarial environment.
Please share this widely.
BREAKING: The Srebrenica Memorial Center is under very serious threat from Serbia and Republika Srpska. Serbia has long wanted to get rid of this important center dedicated to commemorating the genocide and conducting research on it. THIS MUST BE PREVENTED.
Please share this widely
After repeatedly detaining multiple current and former employees of the @SrebrenicaMC last month, which triggered international rebukes of the regime in Banja Luka, including by the US Congress, Memorial Center Director @suljagicemir1 warns he expects the memorial to be raided (!) by RS entity police in coming days.
If this occurs, it will be the most direct attack on the Bosniak community in the Srebrenica area since the July 1995 genocide. A transparent effort to terrorize the local Bosniak community, only days ahead of the next Bosnian general elections.
It is imperative that @euforbih provide a protective cordon around the institution itself to prevent such unlawful actions. If EUFOR refuses to perform their duties, then law enforcement from Sarajevo should be dispatched directly to protect what is - by law - a state institution. And if the raids do occur, immediate and severe political consequences must follow for the regime in Banja Luka from Brussels and the capitals. https://t.co/2nZ2DUQfio
Povod dolaska u Srpsku je da tamo podigli studente na stvaranje Srpskog Sveta i pripajanje SR, sada kada su ih veći cetnici od njih napali, traže zaštitu. Neki dan su na mostu vezali zastave da nam pokažu da će spojiti Srpsku. Licemjerje ovih ljudi nema granica. Lazne žetve.
Da ne bi bilo neke misterije, pišem ovo zato što znam da se sprema nova hajka na MCS: s tim što će ovaj put to biti transporteri, specijalci s maskama, kamere RTRS-a i iznošenje dokumenata. Ništa od toga nema veze s bilo kakvom legitimnom istragom, nego je plan da se Memorijalni centar svede "na mjeru" i mezarje u provinciji
Iskopavanje grobova na mezarju kod Pala, da bi se na njima pravila vikendica, nije stvar jednog pojedinca, odnosno Jelene Hršum. Neko je pristao da dođe to graditi, kopati, vaditi kosti, premještati nadgrobne spomenike. To su još najmanje dvije osobe. I još najmanje nekoliko njih je znalo za to i šutilo (članovi porodice, poznanici, drugi koji imaju vikendice okolo). To je već jedna grupa ljudskih nakaza, nije samo jedna u pitanju.
