American “Defense & Foreign Affairs” Daily on BiH Terrorist Organization
VECERNJE NOVINE - October 4, 2004

Saudi and Iranian governments are working together on supporting the anti-Russian operations in Chechnya and they are building bases for future operation in the North Cyprus, which is under the Turkish control. During 2004 this organization has operationally and financially spread and opened new offices in BiH and Sandzak, in Southern Serbia.

“Defense and Foreign Affairs” Daily mentioned a secret Wahhabi terrorist organization called “Kvadrat” (Square), which was established in 1995 in BiH. The members of that organization are practicing the original Islam ideology and recruiting children who stayed without parents during the war in BiH to go and fight in Chechnya.

They are teaching those children the Wahhabi ideology and terrorist guerilla war tactics. The clear participation of the Iranian Intelligence Service- VEVAK in the “Kvadrat” youth’s training supported by Saudi’s funding shows that Iran and Saudi Arabia are working close together in the Islamic mission.

Bosnian sources claim that “Kvadrat” is an organization connected to Al Qaeda. This organization operates in the triangle between Zenica, Tuzla, and Sarajevo in BiH. It is believed that certain Pezo Adnan is the operational leader of the group and he receives orders from Vienna. He lives in Zenica and his nickname is Acit.

Acit was a member of El Mujaheed terrorist unit in BiH. “Kvadrat” has started training orphan children in 2001 at the Jablanica Lake in a small place called Podi. One of their main activities in 2004 was to provide fighters to go and help their Islamist brothers in Chechnya. One of those fighters is Kenan Bijedic who was arrested in Turkey on his way to Chechnya.

This analysis also claims that this organization receives financial help from an “innocent” organization called “Saudi High Committee for Orphan Children” located in Sarajevo. SFOR troops searched their offices several times. Al Haramain also finances “Kvadrat” organization.

Al Haramain is on the US list of people and organizations connected with terrorism. Bosnian Muslim Mohamed Porca controls “Kvadrat” organization from Vienna. He is also connected with other Islamic organizations in Austria and Germany and he also collects funding for this organization. “Kvadrat” organization opened its offices in BiH and Southern Serbia as well.

“The opening of “Kvadrat” offices in Serbia shows that they are directly financed from the drug trafficking business going from Afghanistan, through Iran, Azerbaijan, Turkey, to Albania and then through Kosovo and Sandzak to BiH and further to Western Europe”.

The main radical activists in “Kvadrat” are: Samir Softic, Samir Susa, Nisvet Kolisic, Emir Dzafic (born in 1975, President of Kvadrat in Visoko).
