The case in Bihać, where Islamist Adil Ćenanović harassed a Serb family, shows hatred that has lasted since the 1990s and is being passed down generationally in certain communities, said Đorđe Radanović, President of the Committee for the Protection of Serbs’ Rights in the Federation of BiH.
“They consider everything that is Orthodox and Serb to be a problem,” Radanović emphasized.
He assessed that institutions in the Federation of BiH do not react to attacks on Serbs, reminding that the Committee has sent multiple reports, but the police, prosecutor’s office, and courts have taken no action.
He questioned what connection the song “Rejoice, Serb people”, over which a Serb family was harassed, has with anything.
“It is not against anyone, yet you can see that some individuals respond to it with hatred,” said Radanović, adding that this is yet another proof of continuous hatred toward Serbs in the Federation of BiH.
He stressed that today in Bihać there are not even 10 Serb households left, but that even those families will leave the town if they continue to be subjected to pressure from people like Ćenanović.
Islamist Adil Ćenanović harassed a Serb family in Bihać for playing the song “Rejoice, Serb people”, shouting “Takbir – Allahu Akbar” in front of their house. He posted everything on social media, issuing threats.
“Takbir! Allahu Akbar! Let’s see who will dare to turn it up,” said Ćenanović, who wore a headband with an Arabic inscription.
In the Federation of BiH, attacks on Serb returnees, their property, and holy sites have been frequent.
