Saudi Prince Opens A Saudi prince opened eastern Europe's largest Islamic complex in Sarajevo on Friday, crowning Saudi aid to Bosnia worth DEM 1 billion during and after its 1992-5 war. Prince Selman Bin Abdul Aziz, governor of Riyadh, arrived in Bosnia on Wednesday for a five-day visit in his capacity as the head of the High Saudi Committee for Assistance to Bosnia, and is to inaugurate several Saudi-financed projects. Alija Izetbegovic, Bosnia's wartime Muslim president and now chairman of the country's multiethnic collective presidency, had been expected to join the prince for the opening of the King Fahd Mosque and Islamic cultural center in the new section of Sarajevo, along with Islamic community leader Mustafa Ceric. The Saudi committee sent aid from the beginning of a war in which Bosnia's Muslims and its Muslim-led government came under devastating attack from Bosnian Serb and Croat secessionist armies.
