Urban-in NGO Director Aida Corovic was given police protection after verbal attacks and insults from Islamic Community in Serbia Chief Mufti Muamer Zukorlic. Corovic has assessed that the state has let things take an “abnormal course” and authoritative religious leaders to move from religious issues to politics. Police protection after clash with mufti “Unfortunately I will get police protection and it’s a shameful information for Serbia that somebody who was born and whose entire family has lived in Novi Pazar for generations does not feel safe,” she said. Commenting on Corovic’s article in daily Danas, which states that women who recently started wearing hijab or headscarves in large numbers in Sandzak are actually in the service of a political option led by Zukorlic, Muslim Youth Club Deputy President Aida Rasljanin called the Urban-in director a “frustrated woman”. Zukorlic has called her “a hater of her own culture and everything that is Muslim”. “This is a marginal person without any importance. There are dozens of non-governmental organizations in Novi Pazar but she was the only one who got media coverage, and when I’m mentioned then they take down all titles. That’s all a part of a continued discrimination which has been carried out against Bosniaks for years,” the mufti said. Serbian President Boris Tadic has condemned the chauvinistic outbursts and verbal attacks against Corovic. He said in a written statement that Serbia would stop everybody who was threatening and jeopardizing the safety of its citizens. Zukorlic has stated that the president’s support is a “non-statesmanlike, irresponsible and biased” attitude.
