Three injured in Dobrinja building, attacker identified but not arrested

(Patria) - An attack occurred yesterday in a residential building in Dobrinja, Sarajevo, in Branislava Nušića Street, in which three people were injured. However, the police did not arrest anyone. Residents were met with blood in the stairwell and bloody towels behind the building yesterday, as well as two police patrols.

"On 09/07/2022 at 06:10, the Novi Grad Police Department was informed that in an apartment in Branislava Nušića Street, Novi Grad Municipality Sarajevo, the following individuals were physically attacked and injured with a knife by F.D. from Sarajevo: S.Š., born in 2001, E.Š., born in 2000, and T.H., born in 2001, all residing in Sarajevo. The injured parties received medical assistance from the Sarajevo Canton Emergency Medical Service team, and later at the University Clinical Center Sarajevo, where doctors determined that E.Š. sustained minor bodily injuries and was sent home for treatment after receiving medical attention, while S.Š. and T.H. sustained injuries of an undetermined degree and were admitted for further treatment. The duty prosecutor of the Cantonal Prosecutor's Office of Sarajevo Canton was informed about the above. An investigation was conducted by police officers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Sarajevo Canton, who are continuing their work to shed light on and document the mentioned criminal offenses, as well as to find the perpetrator," the police report stated.

Incidentally, this is not the first incident in this building and involving the same actors. Residents of the stairwell where one of the incidents occurred have been having problems for months with a group of young men and women staying in an apartment whose owner is abroad. The police have visited this address multiple times and intervened due to various incidents. The residents are disturbed and are asking the police to find the owner or whoever is responsible for the maintenance of the apartment to prevent such incidents in the future.

This is a stairwell with many residents with small children who fear for the safety of their families.

The police and the KS Prosecutor's Office must bring this case to a conclusion this time and find all those who caused the incident, which could have ended tragically.
