Namely, in the procedure of the enforcement of the judgment of the Municipal Court in Sarajevo, the Attorney's Office of the Municipality of Centar originally submitted a Proposal for seizure of a motor vehicle owned by the complainant, which procedure was suspended upon the complainant's objection. After that, the Public Attorney's Office of the Municipality of Centar proposed that the enforcement be carried out by seizure, appraisal and sale of the real estate owned by the complainant, which is a two-bedroom apartment in Sarajevo, with an area of 80.39 m2. In addition to the fact that the complainant points out that he is a beneficiary of a disability pension and personal disability allowance, which could be the subject of enforcement, it is also pointed out that the said real estate, in which the complainant lives with his family, is fully adapted to persons with disabilities. By selling the property, the appellant's family would be left without a home and basic living conditions. The Ombudsmen reminded of the Decision of the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina AP-1955 of May 26, 2019. which held that the sale of seven real estates in the value of 44,249.50 BAM for the purpose of collecting the debt of 64,90 BAM would lead to deprivation of the complainant of the ownership over these real estates, and that insufficient attention was paid to establishing proportionality between the complainant's debt and real estate sale.
