An attempt to arrest Bosnian Serb
leader and President of the Republika Srpska Milorad Dodik, for
whom Bosnian justice has issued an arrest warrant in recent
weeks for undermining the constitutional order, failed last
night in East Sarajevo, a Bosnian Serb-controlled city. Tense
scenes were captured at the Administrative Centre of the
Government of the Republika Srpska, Bosnia-Herzegovina's
Serb-majority entity, where Dodik was located. Special units of
the State Investigation and Protection Agency (SIPA, Bosnian
Federal Police) attempted to apprehend Dodik, but officers from
the Republika Srpska police opposed and stopped them.
