Lawyer for Ibro Bešlija: Konaković is telling falsehoods!

(Patria) - FUP police officer Ibro Bešlija, through his lawyer, denied the allegations made at yesterday's press conference by BiH Foreign Minister Elmedin Konaković regarding the criminal proceedings conducted by the BiH Prosecutor's Office under the code name "Black Tie 2" being generated as his revenge, and that his access to classified information has been revoked.

The Patria News Agency attempted to contact Bešlija, but he referred us to his attorney, Sarajevo lawyer Alen Nakić.

Nakić confirmed in a phone conversation that he is indeed Bešlija's attorney, emphasizing that the information related to Bešlija and his role in the mentioned proceedings, published in the media and by Minister Konaković, is absolutely untrue.

According to Nakić, such information aims to defame Bešlija and his honorable role within the Federal Police Administration, as a law enforcement agency that has participated in a large number of successfully conducted police operations.

Nakić emphasizes that Konaković's claim that Bešlija's security clearance has been revoked is particularly untrue.

He adds that following an expanded security check, conducted by OSA BiH based on media articles, Bešlija's loyalty to BiH and its security system has been irrefutably established.

Nakić added that Bešlija expects other police officers, especially those treated in the latest police operation, to undergo the same security check as he did based on media articles, including a temporary ban on access to classified information of all levels until the expanded security check is completed, given that criminal proceedings have been initiated against them.
