Overview
- The Milan prosecutor’s office opened the case on Nov. 12 for aggravated voluntary homicide, a classification intended to avoid statute‑of‑limitations obstacles.
- The investigation follows a complaint by journalist Ezio Gavazzeni with attorneys Nicola Brigida and Guido Salvini, who submitted documents and testimonies about trips to Sarajevo to shoot civilians.
- Authorities have not publicly named suspects as they work to establish identities, while media reports cite at least three Italians as persons of interest, including a Milan plastic surgeon.
- Evidence cited includes testimony from former Bosnian intelligence and military figure Edin Subasic and material from the 2022 film Sarajevo Safari describing payments of €80,000–€100,000, with children reported as costlier targets.
- Investigators are collecting records and audiovisual material to corroborate the allegations, and no indictments or arrests have been announced.
