Police confiscate documents from BiH presidency building

Investigators on Thursday confiscated documents from the Presidency Building of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) as part of an anti-corruption campaign. Members of the State Investigation and Protection Agency took a large amount of documents from the building in the morning, local media reported. The operation is part of a campaign code-named "Patriot" against high-level corruption. The documents were taken under the request of the prosecutor's office and the BiH court, officials said. The campaign is connected with the case involving the president of BiH Zivko Budimir, who was arrested in April but was released after one-month custody. He was accused of taking bribes to arrange pardons for convicts. Budimir denies the accusations.
