The Office of the Disciplinary Prosecutor of the High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council of Bosnia and Herzegovina, headed by Alena Kurspahić-Nadarević, filed an appeal against the decision of the First Instance Disciplinary Commission in the "Ranko Debevec" case a few days ago.

In addition to the UDT, the lawyers of the President of the Court of B&H also filed an appeal.

In that way, the Second Instance Disciplinary Procedure began.

When asked by the HJPC whether the Second Instance Commission has been appointed, we were answered:

- We would like to inform you that by initiating the second instance proceedings against the President of the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina Ranko Debevec, the System for Automatic Disciplinary Case Management (DKCMS) assigned the case to one of the three permanent second instance commissions for judges. We are unable to provide the names of the commission members.

We remind you that although he was part of numerous scandals, inappropriate meetings, threats to prosecutors, journalists, Ranko Debevec, severely compromised President of the Court of B&H, by the decision of First Instance Disciplinary Commission of the HJPC, was only publicly warned in disciplinary proceedings against him for several disciplinary offenses.

One of them is inappropriate contact with Osman Mehmedagić Osmica, director of the Intelligence and Security Agency (ISA), last year, on the day when the Prosecutor's Office of B&H filed a new indictment against Osmica in the "Security Checks" affair.

All of this was not enough to suspend Debevec and relieve him of his duties. It is obvious that the HJPC B&H has double standards: one applies to the Chief Prosecutor of the Prosecutor's Office of B&H Gordana Tadić, and the other to the President of the Court of B&H Ranko Debevac.

The question is also why the HJPC does not want to say the names of the Second Instance Commission, because in the case of Gordana Tadić, the names of the members were made public.
