On social networks, users are sharing a video in which Dario Kordić, a convicted war criminal for the murder of 116 Bosniaks in Ahmići, says during a relaxed social conversation that everything he done earlier – he would repeat again. After that statement, those gathered around Kordić also sang the song Vrijedilo je (It was worth it) song. The assumption is that the recording was made at the beginning of August last year during the commemoration of the Storm action.
Not long after the video was released, reactions followed. President of the Association of Genocide Victims and Witnesses Murat Tahirović believes that Kordić would have been arrested if Bosnia and Herzegovina was a country that respects law. Shame on everyone who still believes that the statements of Lidija Bradar and Sanja Vlaisavljević are just wrong expressions and not the continuation of criminal politics, says Tahirović.
Reisul-ulema of the Islamic Community in Bosnia and Herzegovina Husein Kavazović announced on Facebook that criminals who are greeted as heroes do not need to repent and apologize to the victims. This is what they say when they are – rehabilitated in this way. They sow the seeds of new evil. May God have mercy on the souls of innocently killed people, and curse the criminals, those who glorify them, wrote Kavazović.
