The purchase of the prison sentence in the Federation of BiH will be 50 percent more expensive than in the Republika Srpska.
Namely, the FBiH changes the criminal law, and several amendments also apply to the replacement of the prison sentence, monetary and vice versa.
According to the Early Valid Law in the FBiH, in Article 43A, which treats this segment, a sentence of up to one year will be imposed on the request of convicts, to be replaced by 100 km each day.
However, amendments are prescribed that the number 100 is replaced by number 150, but is specified and in which cases cannot redeem the prison sentence.
“Imprisonment of imprisonment cannot be replaced by a fine for crimes against the Constitutional Order of the Federation, Trafficking in Human Beings, Crimes and Morality Crimes and Children’s Offices and the Children’s Offices in the FBiH in the adoption process.
FBiH brings another bit change … in the law now, if a fine is not paid within the deadline established, the Court shall decide to be replaced in a way that one day of imprisonment will be determined for every 100 km of fines. Here, too, the amount of 100 changes in the law of 150 km.
In the Criminal Code of the Republika Srpska, and in the Criminal Code of BiH, it is currently in 100 marks, whether a convict begins the prison sentence, or not to pay the monetary, and it changes in prison.
Denis Hajjović, president of the Center for Security Studies, says that such differences in prices do not monitor the consistency of criminal and legal systems in BiH, but is a real disbase.
“It is incomprehensible for someone, whether from populism or some other reasons, should not be equal to the Law in BiH, that there is a need for greater allocation, that all the criminal laws are changed in parallel, not to remain the possibility of speculation and unequal treatment of citizens,” He said Hadžovic for the “independent newspaper”.
Citizens, it reiterated, must be equal before the law.
“In FBiH, when it came to illegal weapons, there were no differences in the cantons, and we are in the other crime. That is where the uneven interpretations are, we do not want such ‘excursions’ are not welcome for the legal system in BiH, ie rule. Rights, “Hadzovic emphasized.
Banja Luka lawyer Milan D. Petković believes that the Serbian, after FBiH, should not increase the price for the purchase of the prison sentence.
“I don’t think that Serb needs to go to increase this price because it was 50 marks until a few years ago, and then there is 100 marks at the level of BiH. I have not seen the reason for another 50 percent,” Petković said.
He recalls that, when it comes to this practice, it is a picturesque said, two-way street, “and the argument for that.
“According to the current law, in Serbian if someone receives a fine of 36,000 marks, he will not go to prison for a year. If he would no longer go to prison, but less,” Petkovic said in a statement for “Independent newspaper“.
