Elektroprivreda BiH seeks reinstatement of the previous status in the HE Neretva case, as the Mostar administration acted unlawfully

(Patria) - Bosniaks from the City Council of Mostar warned two days ago that a major fraud is being attempted through new cadastral decisions.

Specifically, they warned that the possessor has been changed on 207 plots, and the unlawfulness is so extensive that even HE Salakovac has been registered under Elektroprivreda HZ HB.

Today, Elektroprivreda BiH also issued a statement, informing the public that it has knowledge of the recent actions of the Department for Urbanism and Construction, the Cadastre Service of the City of Mostar, which changed the rights holder in the cadastral register from Hidroelektrane na Neretvi to JP Elektroprivreda HZ HB d.d. - Mostar.

“JP Elektroprivreda BiH emphasizes that Hidroelektrane na Neretvi operate within JP Elektroprivreda BiH and are registered as such in the court registry,” they state in their response, adding:

“Considering the fact that Hidroelektrane na Neretvi, i.e., JP Elektroprivreda BiH, was not involved as a party in this administrative procedure of the Cadastre Service of the City of Mostar, JP Elektroprivreda BiH has taken all necessary and available legal steps, mechanisms, and activities to protect the rights and interests of its property in the area of the City of Mostar.”

From EP BiH, they state that immediately upon learning of this, they submitted a request for an inspection as well as a request for access to the case file, which has not been granted to them to this day.

“A request has been submitted for recognition as a party in the proceedings, as well as a request for reinstatement to the previous status, based on which a decision is expected from the administrative body that conducted the proceedings. With the aim of protecting its rights, JP Elektroprivreda BiH will, as before, continue to use all regular and extraordinary legal remedies available to it,” they state, adding:

“JP Elektroprivreda BiH calls on the administrative bodies of the City of Mostar to take appropriate steps and activities without delay, acting in accordance with applicable regulations and the principles of legality, responsibility, and protection of property rights.”
