In a session held by the Central Election Commission (CEC) of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Milorad Dodik has been stripped of his mandate as President of Republika Srpska. The decision was adopted unanimously by the commission.
Dodik’s legal team has the right to appeal the decision to the Appellate Division of the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which handles electoral complaints. After the appeals process is completed, the decision will become final and binding.
An appeal must be filed within two days of receiving the decision.
Once the decision becomes final, the CEC will issue a ruling on the announcement and organization of early elections, according to Bosnian media reports.
