Bosnia prosecutor seeks detention of separatist Serb leaders amid mounting tensions

The Bosnian Prosecutor's Office has ordered the arrest of Milorad Dodik and two aides for an alleged attack on the constitutional order after they failed to respond to summons for questioning.
Milorad Dodik is being investigated for barring the state judiciary and police from the region following a sentence of one year in jail.
Tensions are rising as the RS assembly debated a draft constitution to create an army and allow separation from Bosnia and Herzegovina, actions criticized by the United States and the European Union.
Dodik is reportedly planning a meeting with Russian officials, asserting he does not recognize the Bosnian prosecution office and refusing to go to Sarajevo for questioning.
