The trial on the "Face TV" lawsuit against Bosmal, which was scheduled for today in the Municipal Court in Sarajevo, has been postponed to September 10.

The owner and editor of "Face TV", Senad Hadžifejzović, told the gathered journalists today in front of the court that this television actually "forces Bosmal to take a million and a half KM and to respect the contract that was signed eight years ago".

-Face TV d.o.o. sued Bosmal d.o.o. to respect the contract, that is, to force them to take a million and a half marks from us, in order for us to buy the space for which we have a contract from 8 years ago. So, we are forcing Bosmal to take a million and a half marks and to respect that contract - said Hadžifejzović.

He claims that Bosmal is avoiding its obligations.

- We think it's for political reasons. The director of Bosmal said that he had received an order from the SDA and Reis Cerić, Hasan Čengić and Bakir Izetbegović to evict us. We got the lawauit in the Municipal and Cantonal Courts and then the Supreme Court in the single-ethnic council, which the party council, composed of three Bosniaks, returned the case to the Municipal Court with the same judge. That is political pressure. If the court ruled against our lawsuit, "Face" would be revoked, because we have nowhere else to go – said Hadžifejzović.

The hearing was not held today because the defendants did not appear in court.

A hearing for the case between the parties Bosmal d.o.o Sarajevo and Face d.o.o Sarajevo was to be held today in the Municipal Court. In the first-instance proceedings, "Face" received a verdict in his favor in both the Municipal and Cantonal Courts, but the FB&H Supreme Court overturned the verdict and remanded the case for retrial.
