ZAGREB, 28 February 2021 - Dozens of local residents in Grude, southern Bosnia and Herzegovina, on Sunday gathered in front of the birth house of Milan Bandić, the mayor of Zagreb who died of a heart attack earlier in the day, and they lit candles in his memory.
An image of Bandić was displayed on a video wall on a building in the southern city of Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Also, letters of condolence have been sent from several local office-holders and religious dignitaries.
Some of those who sent condolences to the Bandić family and the Zagreb city administration are the mayors of Sarajevo and Banja Luka, Abdulah Skaka and Draško Stanivuković, former Mostar mayor Ljubo Bešlić, and the Archbishop of Sarajevo, Cardinal Vinko Puljić.
