David Davor “Djakac” Dragicevic

In memoriam

On 18 March 2018, David Dragičević, a 21-year-old man, went missing in Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina. On 24 March, his dead body was found. Police investigation ruled the death as an accident, but Dragičević's parents claimed that their son was brutally murdered and that the police and prosecutor's office are trying to cover-up the case. The result of the police investigation provoked major public uproar, and many mass protests were organized demanding the truth and justice. The public was overweeningly convinced that Dragičević was murdered. In May 2018, the National Assembly of Republika Srpska voted to form an Inquiry Board to analyze circumstances surrounding Dragičević's death. The Board found that Dragičević was probably murdered, but its report was rejected by the Assembly. As of July 2018, the Prosecutor's office has not reacted, and the death remains classified as an accident, while the public protests are ongoing. Group on Facebook named "Pravda za Davida" (Justice for David) counting more than 350.000 members and receiving support from all over the world.
