Bosnia's Defence Minister, SDA to file criminal complaints against Dodik and others

According to his social media posts, he will also file a criminal complaint against his deputy Aleksandar Goganovic and the colonel of the BiH Armed Forces, Milan Damjanic.

"From 09. January 2024 and the marking of the ‘unconstitutional Day of the RS,’ I worked intensively with the best legal experts and respected lawyers in Bosnia and Herzegovina on the preparation of a criminal complaint against 3 individuals. The criminal charges are ready and I will submit them to the Prosecutor's Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina on Thursday, January 18, 2024, at 11 o'clock. I am confident that the judicial authorities of BiH will act in accordance with the Constitution and laws of BiH," Helez stated.

RS National Assembly Deputy Speaker Ramiz Salkic also spoke earlier and announced that his party, the Democratic Action Party (SDA), is filing a criminal complaint against Dodik and members of the Committee for Marking "Day of RS" for disobeying the decisions of the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Bosnia's Constitutional Court ruled twice that the celebration of this date is unconstitutional.
