Bosnia
reaches out to refugees
May 08, 2008 10:47 AM
SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina-Local elections will be held in Bosnia
on Oct. 5, and a special privilege will be given to survivors of the Srebrenica
massacre.
People must vote where they currently live. But Parliament passed an
exception for the east Bosnian town of Srebenica on Wednesday, saying people
who lived there in 1991 can return to vote, no matter where they are now
registered.
The goal is to get refugees to return to the once Muslim-dominated Srebrenica.
It ended up in the Bosnian Serb part of the country after Serbs overran
it in 1995, expelled its Muslim population and killed 8,000 men and boys
in Europe's worst massacre since World War II.
