DODIK: CEC IS CARRYING OUT POLITICAL TERROR, CRIMINAL CHARGES WILL BE FILED

BANJA LUKA, DECEMBER 25 /SRNA/ - The leader of SNSD, Milorad Dodik, announced that criminal charges would be filed against the members of the CEC of BiH, whom he accused of carrying out political terror.

Dodik says it is a conspiracy, and the conspirators are those from the CEC who got into their positions illegally and agreed to work with Muslims. "They think they can carry out political terror however they want, but we will not allow that," Dodik said after a meeting of the ruling coalition. He added that those from the CEC want to label the citizens in areas where elections were annulled as criminals. "This conspiracy started the moment the opposition from Republika Srpska – SDS, PDP, and Nebojša Vukanović – agreed to be part of the project to cancel the SNSD's fourth term, and after that, to strip the president of the Republic of his power in order to create what they are doing now," Dodik said, adding that they are taking action to take control of Republika Srpska. The CEC of BiH made a non-final decision yesterday to annul the snap presidential elections in Republika Srpska at 136 polling stations in 17 constitutencies. The early elections were annulled at certain polling stations in Prijedor, Laktaši, Banja Luka, Doboj, Stanari, Lopare, Ugljevik, Osmaci, Vlasenica, Zvornik, Bratunac, Nevesinje, Gacko, Rudo, Bileća, Milići and Brčko.
