البوسنة: قتل شرطي مسلم أثناء حراسته كنيسة

- خبر من مصادر إنجليزية.

تشهد "البوسنة والهرسك" حالة من الاستنكار الشديد لتعرض أحد رجال الشرطة المسلمين للقتل جراء إطلاق النار عليه، أثناء حراسته لإحدى الكنائس الأرثوذكسية التي تعرضت للاعتداءات في وقت سابق بقرية "ريليفو" القريبة من العاصمة "سراييفو".

وقد أشارت الأجهزة الأمنية إلى أن الشرطي المسلم - ويدعى "محي الدين بيفوديتش" - قُتل بتعرضه لعديد من الطلقات النارية الصادرة من سلاح آلي؛ حيث تأتي هذه الحادثة في ظل توتر العلاقات بين المسلمين والصرب والكروات في المنطقة، منذ حرب 1992 - 1995 والتي راح ضحيتها 100 ألف شخص غالبيتهم من المسلمين؛ المصدر: شبكة الألوكة.

Muslim church guard slain in Bosnia

A Muslim policeman has been shot dead while guarding a Serbian Orthodox church in a Muslim-dominated village near the Bosnian capital Sarajevo, say local religious leaders who have condemned the killing.

‘‘This is a monstrous crime. This is an attack against humanity, against civilisation, against the state, but also against places of worship,’’ Boris Kozemjakin, a local Jewish leader, told reporters as he came to the scene of the crime with Muslim, Catholic and Orthodox Christian religious leaders.

Muhidin Pivodic, a Muslim, was shot dead overnight while sitting in a police car in front of the Serbian Orthodox church in the village of Reljevo, near Sarajevo.

The police officer was charged with protecting the church, which in the past had come under automatic weapons fire and been vandalised.

‘‘The policeman was killed by several bullets, probably by an automatic weapon,’’ said police spokesman Irfan Nefic.

Police have opened a probe into the murder, but refused to label it an attack against the church.

‘‘At the moment we do not know the killer’s motive and should avoid speculation. But the man who was there to prevent (inter-ethnic) incidents was killed,’’ said local Catholic Church official Mato Zovkic.

Relations among the three main communities in Bosnia – Catholic Croats, Muslims and Orthodox Christian Serbs – remain strained 17 years after the 1992-1995 Bosnian war that left some 100,000 people dead
