BiH: Activists to demonstrate in Sarajevo Dec. 11
Activists to protest at Soccer Association of BiH in Sarajevo, BiH, from 16:30 Dec. 11. Heightened security, transport disruptions likely.
Soccer fans affiliated with multiple teams plan to protest at the Soccer Association of Bosnia and Herzegovina headquarters on Bulevar Mese Selimovica in Sarajevo from 16:30 Dec. 11. The purpose of the demonstration is to denounce the Ministry of Justice of Sarajevo Canton's alleged refusal to require the open election of football team officials. It was not immediately clear how many participants may attend.
Police will likely deploy nearby to facilitate the gathering. The presence of demonstrators and possible police roadblocks will likely disrupt vehicular transport in the area. Low-level confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the affected area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the protest site. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
