Constitutional referendum in Bosnia-Herzegovina is also a high priority for the European Union (EU). EU Commissioner for Enlargement Olli Rehn had previously stated that constitutional referendum was a must for Bosnia in the path of EU membership.

Even though he was arrested already on 3 April 2000, on the basis of a secret indictment, after a year and half the trial chamber has by decision of two judges, Richard May...
