In this sense the most indicated example is the President of RS, Milorad Dodik and some members of the Government on the Court of Bijeljina. The President Dodik has manifested repeatedly this kind of pressure, threatening even the abolition of this court, and insulting the judge for a decision on confiscation of property of the company “Alumina”.
Also, the behavior of the Minister of Justice of the FB&H, Zoran Mikulić, can be characterized as a direct and inappropriate influence and pressure on the work of the judiciary. Bearing in mind that he is suspected of abuse of power and obstruction of justice through unauthorized relocation of witnesses, so on this way he has exercised this kind of public pressure on prosecutors work, practically interfering with judiciary.
TI B&H recalls that judicial institutions should function independently of the executive institutions and to have control over its operations, although political leaders in B&H increasingly show that in B&H executive power is over legislative and judiciary. In this way, the independence of the judiciary is directly threatened, having in mind that any decision of the judiciary, which is not in favor of the representatives of the executive power stimulates threat, pressure and attacks.
