Custody measure will be proposed for the reasons as stipulated in Article 132, paragraph 1, items a) and b) of the Criminal Procedure Code (CPC) of Bosnia and Herzegovina, that is, due to the risk of the suspects’ flight and the danger that, if at large, they may hinder the inquiry, conceal evidence and influence witnesses or accomplices.
In this case, the Prosecutor’s Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina has achieved significant international cooperation in detecting and identifying members of an organized criminal group, and international cooperation will continue in the period to follow, with the aim of identifying all persons involved in illegal activities.
These suspects are charged with organized crime, illicit trafficking in large quantities of narcotic drugs, illegal procurement of specialist equipment for the cultivation of narcotics, as well as illegal trafficking in arms, military equipment and products of dual use.
Also, evidence was collected that these suspects are members of an organized criminal group and that they are associated with organized criminal groups operating in neighbouring countries and with the commission of serious crimes, as well as that they are endangering security in the region.
