In a significant development from Bosnia-Herzegovina, local authorities announced the arrest of three individuals accused of child trafficking and child abuse. This action followed the discovery of numerous children in a residence located in the eastern part of the country.
While police withheld specific details regarding the number of children found in Brcko on Tuesday, Bosnian media outlets indicated that as many as 31 children, including infants, were being kept in the premises.
Authorities have assured that the children are now in a safe environment, and a comprehensive investigation is actively underway to uncover the full extent of the situation.
The Klix news portal revealed that an Italian woman was present in the house with the children, who reportedly possessed Croatian passports. However, the police have refrained from disclosing additional information, emphasizing the case’s sensitive nature.
As the investigation proceeds, the community and authorities await further developments that will hopefully shed light on the circumstances surrounding this unsettling case.
