The former mayor of Sarajevo and the former ambassador of Bosnia and Herzegovina to Qatar, Abdulah Skaka, was released from detention in Zenica prison last night.
The Prosecutor’s Office of the Canton of Sarajevo proposed to the Municipal Court in Sarajevo that the detention of Abdulah Skaka should be terminated, with the simultaneous imposition of prohibitive measures.
The court ordered him to house arrest, i.e. a ban on leaving his residence address and a ban on leaving the country, his travel documents were confiscated, including two diplomatic passports.
He was also banned from communicating with witnesses and accomplices.
The former first man of Sarajevo, and the former BiH ambassador to Qatar, Abdulah Skaka, is suspected, among other things, of giving a gift in connection with the election of the chairman of the City Council, and everything so that Bogić Bogićević could not be elected mayor of Sarajevo, was confirmed for N1 by the Cantonal Prosecutor’s Office of Sarajevo Canton.
Last month, members of the Ministry of Interior of Canton Sarajevo deprived Skaka of freedom on suspicion of committing several criminal acts: abuse of position, unscrupulous work in the service, forgery of official documents, giving gifts and other forms of benefits.
Unofficially, N1 also learns that he is suspected of illegally hiring advisers, spending budget money, that he used money for returnees to bring lighting to his cottage, for falsifying reports and several other actions.
Shortly after the former mayor of Sarajevo was arrested, member of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina Denis Bećirović initiated activities related to his dismissal from the position of ambassador of Bosnia and Herzegovina to the State of Qatar.
