BANJA LUKA, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) — The protests he leads have drawn thousands of people for months and have become a symbol of resistance ahead of Bosnia's tense election on Sunday. But Davor Dragicevic says all he wants is justice for his son.
When the body of 21-year-old David Dragicevic was found in March, police said it was an accident. But the family didn't believe them, launching a quest for truth that has grown into a wider civil movement against injustice and top-level corruption in the Balkan nation.
Months of rallies in Banja Luka have posed a challenge to President Milorad Dodik, a hardline Serb who is running for a seat in the three-member Bosnian presidency in the country's general election Sunday.
Chanting "Killers!" thousands joined the protests Friday.
Dragicevic told The Associated Press "we will not give up."
