In this regard, by inspectors for aliens, a citizen of Algeria with initials S.B. alias A.B. and a citizen of Russia with initials A.G. were found in the Sarajevo area. The individuals in question, before being expelled, were placed under supervision in the Immigration Center in East Sarajevo, due to posing a threat to the security system of BiH due to their connections to terrorism.
