Having held a guilty plea agreement consideration hearing and a sentencing hearing in the case of Tanja Kusmuk (S1 2 K 051180 25 Ko),  on 16 July 2025 the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina delivered and pronounced a Judgment, finding the accused Tanja Kusmuk guilty of the criminal offense of Embezzlement in Office under Article 221(2) as read with Paragraph 1 of the CC BiH, all in conjunction with Article 54 of the Code.

The Court sentenced the accused Tanja Kusmuk to 1 (one) year of imprisonment.

In the same Judgment, the Court granted the redress claim filed by the injured party - Bosnia and Herzegovina, and formally imposed on the accused the obligation to indemnify the injured party by paying 17,798.15 BAM towards the budget of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which she already did on 23 June 2025.

Also, the court imposed a security measure on the accused prohibiting her from performing a certain profession, activity or duty, specifically the profession and duties of a clerk-specialist for cash operations at the Prosecutor's Office of BiH, as well as a ban on performing tasks and duties related to cash operations in all institutions at the level of Bosnia and Herzegovina for a period of 5 (five) years, running from the date the court decision becomes final, with the proviso that the time spent serving the prison sentence shall not be credited towards the security measure.

The Indictment charges the accused Tanja Kusmuk that in the period from 15 December 2020 to 19 November 2024, while performing the duties of clerk-specialist for cash operations at the Prosecutor's Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina, knowingly and with the aim of obtaining unlawful material gain, she unfoundedly recorded payments and deposits of cash from the treasury of the BiH Prosecutor's Office in relevant cash operation documents, which did not correspond to the actual factual situation, in such a way that, through internal records, she presented non-existent payments of expenses for witnesses in certain prosecutorial cases, whereby the persons whose names she listed as witnesses were never heard by prosecutors of the BiH Prosecutor's Office, nor was a decision on the payment of expenses made for them by the competent prosecutor as the basis for such payments, or she used other different modalities, by which she obtained unlawful material gain in the amount of 17,798.15 BAM and thus caused damage to the Prosecutor's Office of Bosnia and Herzegovina, i.e. to the budget of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
