Bosnia-Herzegovina: Activists to demonstrate in Sarajevo from 12:05 Dec. 20

Activists to protest at Office of the High Representative in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, from 12:05 Dec. 20. Tight security likely.

Warning

Activists plan to protest at the Office of the High Representative located at Emerika Bluma 1 in Sarajevo from 12:05 Dec. 20. The purpose of the demonstration is to demand that High Representative Christian Schmidt change national election laws to implement more efficient ballot counting and mandatory voting. It is unclear how many participants may attend.

Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the demonstration site. Though unlikely, low-level confrontations between protesters and law enforcement officers cannot be ruled out.

Avoid the affected area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the Office of the High Representative. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
