On June 17, 2020. in the afternoon hours, journalist Nidžara Ahmetašević tried to photograph a police action and the arrest of migrants in a Sarajevo neighborhood. According to Ahmetašević, on that occasion the police officers verbally attacked her, behaved unprofessionally and threatened her with a misdemeanor report because she “interferes with their work”. Although she showed them journalistic accreditation, they did not want to accept it as a valid document and, as she stated, they asked her for a “work permit”. Finally, they wrote down the records of her and her friend.
