Vice-President of Bratunac Municipal Assembly and leader of Bosniak returnees Ćazim Jusupović Bade passes away

(Patria) - Sad news arrived from Bratunac this morning. Last night, due to the consequences of a stroke, the Vice-President of the Bratunac Municipal Assembly Ćazim Jusupović, known as Bade to the people, one of the leaders of the returnees to his native Bratunac, especially Konjević Polje, and a long-time councilor in the Bratunac Municipal Assembly, passed away, writes Politički.ba.

Bade did not like to be considered a politician; he viewed engaging in politics as a struggle for the survival of Bosniaks in the places from which they were expelled, for which the price was often the hardship of return, poverty, suffering, but without any thought of giving up.

The news of Ćazim Jusupović's death saddened many of his friends and peacetime comrades this morning. Those we called and asked "what happened to Bade" could not utter a coherent word.

More information about the day of Ćazim Jusupović's funeral will be known after discussions with his family, we have learned.
