Some of these trips were justified with travel orders containing inaccurate information. The positions of director and deputy director were also used for official travel across Europe, Asia, and North and South America.

During his 15-year career Banjaluka judge Atko Huseinbašić committed 56 infractions in two courts. It took eight years for HJPC members to finally remove him from office.
They kept evidence in their offices or failed to write verdicts and send convicts to prison, but judges and prosecutors guilty of such mistakes received lenient punishment that didn’t affect their careers. Some of them even won promotions.
Mothers of the former director of the Sarajevo University Clinical Center, Faris Gavrankapetanović, and the CEO of BBI bank Amer Bukvić invested millions of KM in real properties and family businesses which they later turned over to their sons.
For years, the RS Council of Peoples had violated the law and the Constitution by issuing a resolution that made certain officials eligible for a payout. After a CIN reporter exposed those illegalities, the RS Constitutional Court abolished the perk.
Those sentenced to short prison sentences in BiH can buy their way out. Corrupt officials and others have been quick to do this then return to jobs where they broke the law in the first place.
For years, judges and prosecutors have refused to make their asset declarations public. Despite numerous obstructions, resistance, and objections, the Center for Investigative Reporting in Sarajevo has collected some records and is publishing them.
Stjepan Dujo was appointed assistant to the director of BiH Legislative Office despite failing to meet the criteria about required years of experience. Lidija Bradara, former chairwoman of the House of Peoples in the Federation of BiH Parliament, previously illegally appointed Dujo as her aide. Both belong to Croatian Democratic Party.
Houses, apartments and business premises of Sarajevo Jews who died in the Holocaust were transferred to new owners, thanks to the illegal rulings of a judge who, in the same way, appropriated two properties in the narrowest part of the city.
A job ad for an attorney general in Jablanica Municipality attracted seven candidates who all formally met the criteria. Yet, after commission members rated each candidate’s abilities and knowledge in an obscure manner, they chose their colleague’s daughter.
Seven years ago attorney Marica Ćulum was sentenced on organized crime charges and should have been debarred. Instead, she’s the most highly paid court-appointed attorney before the Basic Court in Banja Luka.
The Republika Srpska is borrowing millions to decrease the number of RS Railways workers. At the same time the company keeps jobs for employees who don’t even show up for work.
Mirza Ganić might be in a conflict of interest, serving as both director of the Zenica division of the public company BH Telecom, and as a legislator in the Federation of BiH House of Representatives. No agency in the entity can establish if those two positions are officially incompatible.
