Bosnian Security Minister Arrested, Charged with Money Laundering and Abuse of
Nenad Nesic and Miroslav Dodik

The Prosecutor's Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina confirmed today that Nenad Nešić, Minister of Security, has been arrested.

He was arrested as a result of an investigation conducted by the Prosecutor's Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina together with the Directorate for Organized Crime of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Republika Srpska on December 26, in the case of corruption crimes, along with four other people.

The prosecution said they are accused of money laundering, abuse of official position or authority and bribery.
After his arrest, the leader of Republika Srpska, Milorad Dodik, said the arrest was an attempt to destabilize Republika Srpska.

"The proceedings initiated by the BiH Prosecutor's Office against the BiH Minister of Security, Nenad Nešić, are completely unacceptable. This way of working represents the persecution of cadres from Republika Srpska with the aim of destabilizing it."

The Prosecutor's Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina shows that it has become an instrument of several foreign embassies and the Sarajevo political public in dealing with Republika Srpska.

"If there are suspicions that there have been illegal actions, that procedure should be carried out in accordance with the law, and not turn into a media spectacle and show for the public," Dodik said.
