“The documentary film ‘Sarajevo Safari’ was an opportunity for me to learn that foreign mercenaries came and paid to kill innocent civilians in Sarajevo. That's terrible. These are not people, they are monsters, the only thing I considered correct was to file a criminal complaint against the unknown foreign individuals who came to Sarajevo and against the members of the Republika Srpska (RS) entity Army, who made such a thing possible,” Karic told N1 earlier.

The film ‘Sarajevo Safari’ directed by Mirana Zupanica is a story about rich foreigners who allegedly paid for the opportunity to shoot civilians in the besieged city from territory controlled by the Army of Republika Srpska. The film was recently screened in Sarajevo.
