- Milan Bandic was a Croatian politician who served as mayor of Zagreb from 2000 to 2002 and again from 2005 until his death in 2021.
He was both a prominent force within and one of the most popular members of the Social Democratic Party of Croatia (SDP), who gained further notoriety for a number of statements he made as mayor. In 2007 he unsuccessfully ran for the party president. However, he remained one of the main rivals of the former party president Zoran Milanovic. In 2009 he was expelled from the SDP party due to his violation of the party's bylaws. He then ran on a populist platform to become Croatian president in the 2010 election in which he lost to the SDP candidate Ivo Josipovic. Bandic is viewed as having been a hands-on mayor because of his ambition and the number of projects related to Zagreb that he undertook. During his term as mayor he worked on the Arena Zagreb and Homeland Bridge which opened during his third term, and the Ljubljanska Avenue (now Zagrebacka Avenue) was renovated.
Bandic was arrested in the evening hours of 19 October 2014, along with 18 other officials, under the suspicion of malfeasance related to Zagreb Holding. In his absence, his deputy Sandra Svaljek took the duties of mayor from 19 October 2014 until 26 March 2015. Bandic canceled the authorization that he granted to her because of some disagreements between them.[8][9] Consequently, Svaljek resigned all of her duties in city. Bandic's second deputy Vesna Kusin took the duties of mayor on 26 March 2015. On 10 April 2015, the Zagreb County Court ruled that Bandic had to be released from prison while his trial was pending trial. Consequently, he returned to the position of mayor. - Nino Raspudic was born on 3 November 1975 in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Yugoslavia [now Bosnia and Herzegovina].

Hanka Paldum is a Bosnian Sevdalinka singer and founder of the record label Sarajevo Disk. She is regarded as one of the best female sevdah performers of the 20th century and is popular in her home country of Bosnia as well as in the rest of the former Yugoslavia.
She was born in the eastern Bosnian town of Cajnice to Muslim Bosniak parents Mujo and Pemba. Her father was a logger and her mother wove carpets to provide additional financial assistance for the family, as her fathers salary was not enough to carry a family of seven. Hanka, the oldest female child, began helping her mother with housework at the age of five. When Paldum was seven years of age, her parents moved the family from Cajnice to the Vratnik neighbourhood within the Sarajevo municipality of Stari Grad.
Paldum started singing in the first grade, as part of the choir in her primary school. She would continue singing throughout her childhood.
At the age of twelve, Hanka's brother Mustafa, a member of the Bratstvo (Brotherhood) cultural association, encouraged her to sneak out through her bedroom window and sing at the association events, promising to "cover" for her. She would sing for 15 to 20 minutes and run back home. The director of the House of Culture named Marijan Ravlic, asked her parents to allow her to sing at some local events. Her father allowed it, but with only with the presence of her older brother, Mustafa, who was no less strict than their father. Then Hanka began to sing in amateur contests, which she often won, with the award being chocolate with rice or ten tickets for the cinema. She shared the chocolates, while tickets for the theater remained unused because of her father's strictness.
After three years of struggle, Hanka proved to her parents her passion for music and said she wanted to enroll in a music school.- Composer
