Announcement

Students, parents of students and members of the Richmond Park Schools teaching staff are taken aback by the act of deprivation of the right to freedom of a school principal in Bihać.

Namely, the head of the school Fatih Keskin, who has been performing this function since 2014, was called on Monday (December 2nd) by phone to report to the MUP of Una-Sana Canton, which he did. After an interview he had conducted at official premises of the Ministry, for reasons unknown to us, a member of our teaching team, a director, a husband and a father of two, was taken away in an unknown direction by an official vehicle accompanied by the officials. He was not allowed to contact a lawyer. The next time he was contacted, he said he was at the Immigration Center in Lukavica.

We appeal to all authorities to stand up for the rule of law, to protect in this case our legal and legitimate institutions, employees and above all our students and their parents. Members of our staff are appalled and simply do not know how to explain to the children today what really happened during yesterday when a responsible person, who has responsibly and conscientiously represented our school in Bihać for years, was transported from his classroom within a few hours to a camp in Lukavica.

This is an unprecedented case for one school.
