SARAJEVO, March 25 (Hina) - An estimated 19 per cent of households in Bosnia-Herzegovina possess small arms and light weapons, and 16 per cent possess these weapons illegally, according to a survey conducted by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).

Uncontrolled possession of small arms poses a serious threat to security in any community, inciting conflicts, crime and violence. This problem, which is particularly prominent in Bosnia-Herzegovina, is a legacy of the 1992-1995 war as evidenced by large amounts of surplus weapons declared by the Bosnian armed forces.

In June 2004, the Bosnian armed forces declared a surplus of 370,000 pieces of small arms and light weapons and 33,500 tons of ammunition, the UNDP said.
