The appointment last month of Drasko Milinovic to head the Communications Regulatory Agency of Bosnia and Herzegovina has sparked criticism because of his controversial record in charge of RTRS, the public broadcaster in Bosnia's Serb-dominated Republika Srpska entity.

It also stated that alleged facts in her articles had not been established as "completely true".

Media experts have criticised the Bosnian State Court's request for a new law regulating media reporting on criminal cases, calling it an unwarranted attempt to interfere with journalists' reporting and work.

Media expert Mehmed Halilovic said the State Court's call for regulations on media reporting "lacked foundation".
