Interpol issues arrest warrants for Bosnian Serb leader, RS assembly speaker

**ANKARA** 

Interpol has issued international arrest warrants for Bosnian Serb leader Milorad Dodik and the speaker of the Serb entity Republika Srpska's (RS) assembly, Nenad Stevandic, according to a report by the Serbian newspaper Politika.

The warrants, initiated by Interpol's Sarajevo office, cite criminal charges against the two men for allegedly violating Bosnia and Herzegovina's constitutional order under Article 156 of the country's Criminal Code, the report said.

The warrants have been distributed to all Interpol member states but remain under legal review, according to Politika.

Dodik recently traveled to Serbia for a ceremony commemorating the 26th anniversary of NATO’s Operation Allied Force.

On March 26, the Bosnian Border Police launched an investigation into how Dodik crossed the border into Serbia despite the active warrant.

Dodik, however, reportedly left Serbia for Israel later that day.
