Five employees of Cantonal Hospital Zenica have been arrested on suspicion of violence against a psychiatric patient after CCTV footage was published online. The video emerged after Portal Zenicablog posted part of surveillance recordings from the hospital’s psychiatry department. The footage was linked to a reported incident involving a 24-year-old man from Bugojno, with events shown across several situations over roughly ten minutes. Hospital management and staff reported the case to the relevant authorities, triggering an investigation. Police and the prosecutor’s office took over the complete video recording from recent days. According to the portal, technicians said the patient had attacked them. But after reviewing the video, questions were raised about how staff responded, including the use of force and whether the prescribed procedure was followed. Those circumstances are still to be established by the competent institutions, the report said. The five arrested employees are technicians aged 24, 34, 35, 36 and 37. Police were holding them while the case is investigated, and the portal said a request for detention is expected to be made to the prosecutor’s office during the day.
