The Constitutional Court of BiH rejected the request for reconsideration of the decision by the Constitutional Court of BiH, thus finally confirming that January 9 is unconstitutional. Moreover, the Constitutional Court reached a decision on temporary suspension of the referendum in the RS.
In November last year, the Court reached a decision which declared the Day of RS, January 9, unconstitutional, claiming that it violates the rights of Croats, Bosniaks and other non-Serb population in Republika Srpska.
This decision was neglected by the political representatives of Republika Srpska, who scheduled a referendum on the celebration of the Day of RS on September 25.
The Constitutional Court also adopted a temporary suspension measure for the Decision on the organization of a referendum in Republika Srpska. Seven out of nine judges of the Constitutional Court of BiH voted for all decisions adopted yesterday.
