BiH’s Central Election Commission said Thursday that BiH will hold local elections on Oct. 4 but that Mostar will be exempted again.
The deadlock in Mostar, divided between Bosniaks (Bosnian Muslims) and Croats since the end of Bosnia’s 1992-95 war, stems from the authorities’ failure to enforce a 2010 constitutional court decision on power-sharing there.
The European Court of Human Rights ruled last October in favour of a Bosnian opposition politician who had sued the state for failing to hold local elections in Mostar.
