Efendi Adnan Jakirovic told a news conference in Mostar yesterday that two men had thrown beer bottles at his car when he was driving off from the mosque.
"I called the police from my cellular phone and while I was talking on the phone those two men came closer to me. One of them tried to drag me out of the vehicle threatening he would do everything to prevent me from performing my morning prayers in the mosque," Jakirovic told the press.
A spokesman for the local police said an investigation was under way.
