Azra Zornić, the appellant who received a verdict against Bosnia and Herzegovina for discrimination before the European Court of Human Rights and filed a criminal complaint against the president of HDZ BiH Dragan Čović for non-implementation of that court’s decisions, stated that her fight continues through communication with the Committee the ministers of the Council of Europe for monitoring the execution of ECtHR judgments, who will ultimately be asked to propose the exclusion of Bosnia and Herzegovina from the Council of Europe, “because we have no place there”.
As the keynote speaker at the session of the Association of Independent Intellectuals Circle 99 on the topic “I BiH against the judgments of the European Court of Human Rights”, Zornić said today in Sarajevo that she will continue the fight through new criminal and disciplinary charges against the persons responsible for the non-implementation of the judgments of the European Court of Human Rights. because the construction of the modern democratic state of Bosnia and Herzegovina implies the execution of all judgments of that court.
The second presenter, Doctor of Law Enver Išerić, said that the agents of the Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina who filed an appeal against the verdict in the case “Slaven Kovačević v. Bosnia and Herzegovina” before the European Court of Human Rights had expired and that they did not have any legal identification for any way to communicate with the ECtHR and not to file groundless appeals.
Išerić pointed out that the appointment of ambassadors and other international representatives of Bosnia and Herzegovina is the responsibility of the Presidency and not the Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
He added that the agents of the Council of Ministers are preparing a request to bring the Kovačević case before the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights and thereby unnecessarily and unjustifiably endanger the rights of the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Išerić explained that the difference between the verdict in the Kovačević case is that earlier verdicts established a violation of the right of our citizens to be elected to government bodies, while the Kovačević verdict establishes that his rights to vote for members of the Presidency and delegates in the House of Peoples of the Parliamentary Assembly of BiH were violated.
He emphasized that the verdict in the Kovačević case resonated in BiH with such force that the advocates of human rights violations experienced a classic knockout and disbelief that their manipulations, human rights violations and inciting hatred and ethnic divisions among people and citizens had come to an end, BHRT writes.
