A few days ago, the Cantonal Court in Sarajevo issued a final verdict (65 0 P 775988 19 P) by which the defendant internet portal "Slobodna Bosna" is obliged to pay 3,000 KM in damages to the Chief Prosecutor of the Prosecutor's Office of B&H Gordana Tadić due to published defamation and lies.

This court upheld the first-instance verdict of the Municipal Court stating that the defendant "Slobodna Bosna" is obliged to reimburse Prosecutor Tadić for the costs of the litigation in the amount of 1,089.16 KM, as well as the pronouncement of the verdict on the internet portal www.slobodna-bosna.ba.

The explanation of the verdict states that prosecutor Tadić filed a lawsuit against the publisher of "Slobodna Bosna" on July 18th, 2019, for damages due to defamation.

The lawsuit was filed because of the text published on the portal "Slobodna Bosna" on July 17th, 2019, entitled: "New scandal of Gordana Tadić: In the official documents of the Prosecutor's Office of B&H Neum is treated as a foreign country".

The text, which is characterized as defamation, states that Gordana Tadić stayed in Neum and on July 7th this month she was accommodated in the hotel "Jadran", which costed the taxpayers 263.57 KM " .

However, prosecutor Tadić pointed out that the obvious intention of the defendants (Slobodna Bosna) was to present defamatory content and that untrue content had been published, which the Court eventually accepted.

Considering that all the accounts of the "Slobodna Bosna" portal, more precisely the publisher "Press-Sing", are blocked, as confirmed to us, the Tadić legal team submitted a proposal for execution on movable property.
