Magazinović: Performance in Čapljina is a death threat to Željko Komšić

ČAPLJINA, (Patria) – During the carnival in Čapljina, a group of young men simulated a funeral for Željko K., alluding to the president of the Democratic Front, Željko Komšić. The HDZ BiH has previously accused Komšić of not being a true Croat and of being unable to be a member of the BiH Presidency on behalf of the Croatian people.

The young men simulated the burial according to Muslim religious customs, alluding to the fact that Komšić has the support of Bosniak voters.

SDP representative in the Parliament of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Saša Magazinović, interpreted yesterday's performance in Čapljina as a death threat. He called on state institutions to react.

“What happened yesterday in Čapljina is nothing other than a death threat to Željko Komšić, and the state's reaction is awaited. There is a legal basis. I do not think this was at all naive,” Magazinović wrote on his Twitter account, as reported by NAP.

Ovo sto se desilo jucer u Capljini, sto je nista drugo nego prijetnja smrcu Zeljku Komsicu, ceka na reakciju drzave. Zakonski osnov postoji. Ne mislim da je ovo imalo naivno...

During the carnival in Čapljina, an indictment was also simulated against a character symbolizing Hague judge Carmel Agius, who convicted former leaders of the Croatian Community of Herceg-Bosna for crimes against Bosniaks.

“My comment is only – morbid and sick,” said the president of the Democratic Front, Željko Komšić. The Municipal Organization of the DF in Čapljina condemned the “mockery and abuse of religion and religious feelings.”
