Sarajevo Canton Prosecutors have indicted three former directors of the 'Pazaric' home for children and youth with disabilities for negligence in service and failure to implement measures for the protection of minors related to a 2019 scandal that emerged after images of the conditions in the institution were presented to the public.

The indictment was forwarded to the Sarajevo Municipal Court for confirmation.

In late 2019, an MP in the Parliament of Bosnia's Federation (FBiH) entity, Sabina Cudic, presented shocking photos showing the patients, mostly children, tied to beds and other pieces of furniture and called for urgent dismissal of the management in the institution.

This led to a series of protests which included parents of the children treated in the home.

The FBiH Government soon after dismissed the supervisory and steering boards of the institution.

The EU Delegation in Bosnia also reacted to the scandal, saying it was “appalled” with the images and called for a thorough investigation into the matter.
