Bosnians will gather in Banja Luka on Saturday for another mass protest over the unresolved case of David Dragicevic, the 21-year-old whose death has become a rallying cause for opponents of the Bosnian Serb government.

Slobodan Karagic’s 12-year prison sentence for war crimes against civilians in the Doboj area in 1992, including the rape of minors and the unlawful arrests of Bosniaks, was upheld on appeal.

A baby and a woman in her nineties were the youngest and oldest victims of Srebrenica to be buried so far, said Bosnia’s Missing Persons Institute as the 23rd anniversary of the mass killings approaches.

The Russian ambassador to Sarajevo indefinitely postponed a visit to Srebrenica after he was not allowed to visit the memorial centre for victims of the 1995 massacres because Moscow refuses to define them as genocide.

Sarajevo-based website klix.ba is reporting that the incident happened in the night between Saturday and Sunday, and that "a majority of objects" inside the Church of the Nativity of the Theotokos - including icons and holy books - has been destroyed, along with a portion of the roof.

A local website in Visoki said that the main part of the altar has also been "broken."

Bosnia’s Missing Persons Institute said the remains of at least five people, believed to be Bosniaks killed during the 1990s war, have been exhumed in the Trnovo municipality.

Security and human rights ministers from the Balkans and neighbouring countries agreed at a meeting in Sarajevo on Thursday to create a database which will be compatible with similar systems in Europe in order to track migrants.

"We must be able to see if those people [migrants] previously stayed in Europe," Bosnian security minister Dragan Mektic told media after the meeting.  

Bill Clinton and James Patterson's new novel 'The President is Missing' stars an attractive, pregnant, female vegetarian from Bosnia and Herzegovina who is also an assassin. 

The Bosnian woman is a classical music-loving, cold-blooded killer known only by the code name Bach because she likes to listen to the compositions of Johann Sebastian while doing her job.

The acquittal of Naser Oric, the Bosnian Army’s former commander in Srebrenica, has been quashed and he will be retried for allegedly killing three Bosnian Serb prisoners of war in 1992.
