Porn candidate fights poll ban

A BOSNIAN man who was banned from running in next month’s local elections for using pornographic images on the internet as part of his campaign has said he will fight to be reinstated and get a chance to turn his town into “Hollywood”.

Self-proclaimed “innovator” Mirad Hadziahmetovic was running as an independent candidate for mayor of Zenica, the fourth-largest city in Bosnia with a predominantly Muslim population, in the 7 October ballot.

In an open letter asking for support from western ambassadors, Mr Hadziahmetovic said he only wanted to turn Zenica into a Hollywood instead of a Tehran.
