Rector of the University of Sarajevo (UNSA) prof. dr. Rifat Škrijelj confirmed today for "Dnevni avaz" that he received documentation from the Medical Faculty in Sarajevo related to the academic career of Dr. Sebija Izetbegović, director of the Clinical Center of the University of Sarajevo (KCUS), but he added that documentation is incomplete.
Škrijelj asked the faculty for information about Izetbegović's postgraduate studies and for them to be submitted to him within eight days. However, as Škrijelj confirmed to us today, he did not get everything he asked for, which is why he will ask for the data to be supplemented and new ones sent.
- I asked for information about the postgraduate study of prof. dr. Sebija Izetbegović and the documentation on the election to the title of assistant. Those were two things. I received an answer and certain documentation which is not complete and I ask them to provide me with a supplement to the answer and documentation. We are already preparing everything today because this is too serious topic to go public on the basis of documentation that is not complete - says Škrijelj for "Avaz"
He claims that a supplement to the answer is needed because the requested data was not submitted.
- We are missing some data that we need - says Škrijelj, who also asked the inspection in Sarajevo to check everything.
We remind you that it is still illogical how and when Sebija Izetbegović passed the first exam at the "postgraduate" study in Zagreb in 1993.
In her request in August 1994, she wrote the following to the Council for Scientific Research and Postgraduate Studies in Sarajevo:
"I enrolled postgraduate studies on March 2nd, 1993 at the University of Zagreb - Faculty of Medicine. All classes - lectures, practical work and consultations, as well as exams were conducted in English. Unfortunately, due to political circumstances, I had to leave Zagreb without passing four out of the 14 exams. Please allow me to take the remaining exams and write my master's thesis. "
However, the published „Zagreb“ student booklet reveals that Sebija Izetbegović, as she stated, enrolled in postgraduate studies on March 2nd, 1993, and already on March 19th, more precisely in 17 days, passed the first exam.
The real question is when and how Sebija Izetbegović attended classes in the semester, because then the classes lasted for two years. In addition, each semester had practical work that had to be done in order to take the exam.
To make things clearer, Sebija was not a registered student at the postgraduate study, which was confirmed to us by prof. Sanja Kupešić.
