Islamic State flag displayed in Bosnian village
Additionally, members of the radical Islamic Salafi movement live there.The Sarajevo-based daily Dnevni Avaz writes today that the flags have been removed. A local member of the Salafi community said they were not involved in displaying them, and that "two outsiders" came to the village and put a flag on an abandoned house.
Longtime leader of the Wahhabi movement in Bosnia-Herzegovina Nusret Imamovic joined the war in Syria, according to the FTV report.
Husein Bosnic aka Bilal then took over the leadership of the group, and often visited Gornja Maoca. He was arrested in September and accused of involvement in financing, organizing and recruiting Bosnian citizens to join terrorist groups in Syria and Iraq.
Bosnic's trial is due to start next week.
Last month, extremists caused an incident in a mosque in Sarajevo where they "interfered during the prayer." Eyewitnesses said they wore "black shirts with Islamic State symbols."
