On July 7, the Bratunac Municipality Assembly, with the votes of 19 present out of a total of 25 councilors, made a decision to initiate the impeachment procedure for the head of this local community.
The reasons for the impeachment are the complete lack of cooperation of the mayor with the Municipal Assembly, a large increase in debts and unpaid obligations of the Municipality of Bratunac in the last few months, illegal employment, non-fulfillment of pre-election promises and projects whose implementation was underway 18 months ago when Rankić took office.
90,000 BAM was provided from the budget reserves of the Municipality for the referendum on confidence in Rankic.
