The case of a woman from Banja Luka who committed suicide after a humiliating video was posted online raised questions about the legal boundaries of privacy and how to prevent harassment on the internet without jeopardising freedom of speech.

In less than two years, the Banja Luka police has filed at least 160 charges against activists seeking justice in the Dragan Dragicevic case – which experts see this as open intimidation of free citizens by the Bosnian Serb authorities.

Facebook removed a video posted by the Bosnian Serb ruling party that praised Ratko Mladic after his conviction for genocide and other wartime crimes, and warned that the party could face a ban if it continues to spread ethnic hatred.

The Bosnian Serb authorities presented an award to Austrian Nobel Prize-winner Peter Handke, who has been accused of sympathising with Slobodan Milosevic and downplaying the Srebrenica genocide.
