(Patria) - Naša stranka today commented on the case of Ivana Marić, who on Friday mocked the Reis-ul-ulema of the Islamic Community in BiH, Husein ef. Kavazović, for sending an invitation to khateebs to recite the Prayer for Rain.
"We strongly condemn the hate speech directed at Ivana Marić and the witch hunt launched against her due to a status in which she jokingly commented on the invitation of the former Reis-ul-ulema Mustafa ef. Cerić to believers to recite the prayer for rain", stated Naša stranka, naming the former Reis-ul-ulema instead of Husein ef. Kavazović. After 20 minutes, they sent a corrected version.
"We particularly condemn politicians who, with their stances, have contributed to the atmosphere of lynching. Politicians, if they do not have the courage to defend freedom of speech, then they should remain silent about it, and certainly not fuel negative tensions towards anyone.
We are deeply aware that irony expressed towards any religious phenomenon can cause negative feelings among believers, but we are fighting for a society in which this fact should not cause anyone fear to express their views on religion publicly, even if it is not to the liking of believers. Just as we are for the completely open expression of faith and religious feelings", state Naša stranka.
Although she presents herself as an "independent political analyst", Ivana Marić was one of the candidates for deputy mayor of Sarajevo in 2021, representing Naša stranka. However, Anja Margetić was chosen as deputy mayor as a successful athlete, not a person with a series of controversial statements behind her, including the one that "Bosniaks invented their name so as not to be just Muslims".
