Having questioned the suspects, the Prosecutor in charge of the case put forward a Motion with the Court of BiH seeking custody in the duration of thirty (30) days for reasons as stipulated in Article 132, Paragraph 1, item b), of the BiH CPC.  

Inter alia, the measure of custody has been proposed due to the risk that the suspects, if at large, might destroy, conceal, alter or falsify evidence or clues important to the criminal proceedings, as well as due to the justified fear that the suspects, if at large, might hinder the inquiry by influencing witnesses, accessories or accomplices, or that they might destroy evidence or clues important for these proceedings.  

The motion for custody has been forwarded to the Court of BiH, and the Prosecutor’s Office will resume its investigation in this case.
