REGISTRATION OF VOTERS TO BEGIN IN JUNE

( Editorial: --> 4753 ) SARAJEVO, May 18 (Hina) - Voters will begin their registration for general elections in Bosnia-Herzegovina on June 1 until June 27, the Office of the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) in Sarajevo said in a statement on Monday. Registered can be citizens of Bosnia-Herzegovina who did not register for last year's general elections. They can request registration of their name was on the country's 1991 census, the statement said. If the voter is not on the census, the person has to prove her/his citizenship, and municipal authorities must check out such information. Persons who last year applied to be included in the list of voters, but had been refused, may repeat their application, while officials entrusted with the organisation of the elections have the responsibility to establish the validity of the applications. Most refused applications for last year's registration applied to Serbs who arrived in Bosnia-Herzegovina from Croatia during the war. They did not have the right to vote, because, according to regulations, they could not receive Bosnian citizenship. (hina) lm 181623 MET may 98
