OHR’s Statement at the International Agencies’ Joint Press Conference in Mostar

OHR Comment on Mostar Attack

The Office of the High Representative (OHR) condemns the
attack on the Jasenica mosque in Mostar as it condemns all violence and
provocative acts, including the desecration of the Catholic cemetery in the

village of

Gnojnice

during the weekend. The OHR
urges religious and political leaders to use their influence to appeal for calm
and for media to report these acts responsibly to ensure that they do not
degenerate into a tit-for-tat cycle of violence. And the OHR appeals to citizens
to assist the police in its investigation to identify the
perpetrators.
