Reis al-ulem of the Bosnian Islamic Community Mustafa Ceric has told worshipers in Tutin that “no force exists that can divide them from Bosnia.” “We are one, there is no force that can divide us. Until now, I hadn’t thought that Muslims’ rights were being breached in Serbia, but I’ve seen today in Tutin that that isn’t quite the case,” Ceric told several hundred worshipers in the courtyard of the central mosque in Tutin yesterday. Ceric: Muslim rights being breached “When I travel round the world, people ask me how things are in the Balkans, I say it’s good. But they ask—’but how’s it in Sandzak?’ OK, I think, the mufti’s complaining, but maybe he’s overdoing it. But from today, I’ll no longer say ’overdoing it’, rather I’ll say that I saw with my own eyes that human rights are being violated in Serbia, particularly those of Muslims,“ he said during his visit to Sandzak. The Bosnian reis, who is on a three-day visit to the region, will visit educational institutions and establishments that belong to the Islamic Community in Serbia during his trip. Ceric is also due to meet with chief imams and religious teachers. The Islamic Community delegation headed by the reis will also take in the International University in Novi Pazar, where, after meeting with the rector and University administration, he will give a lecture to professors and students there. Yesterday’s rally in Tutin, which was held as a reception for Ceric, passed off without incident. A large police presence is also expected at today’s meeting in Novi Pazar. After Novi Pazar, Ceric will move on to Novi Varos, Prijepolje and Priboj. Mustafa Ceric in Tutin yesterday (Tanjug)
