STATEMENT OF FACTS

All applicants are nationals of Bosnia and Herzegovina. For additional personal details, see the attached Appendix.

The facts of the case as submitted by the applicants may be summarised as follows.

On 13 October 2005 the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina delivered a decision in which it found that the Å iroki Brijeg Municipality had failed to enforce its own demolition decision of 4 February 2002.

The said decision concerned proceedings instituted against the private company Paškić Ltd, a limited liability company with its registered seat in Široki Brijeg (“the Paškić company”), which had illegally erected two silos for concrete production and the supporting factories close to the applicants ’ homes, causing noise, pollution, dust from cement and stones, smoke from combustion and other discomfort.

In order to remedy this situation , the Constitutional Court ordered the Široki Brijeg Municipality to enforce its own decision, namely to ensure the speedy removal, by the Paškić company, of the buildings in question .

On 27 May 2006 the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina confirmed that the Å iroki Brijeg Municipality had still not enforced its decision of 13 October 2005.

At the date of the latest information available to the Court (20 June 2017) that decision remained unenforced.
