Crossing Continents: Bosnia

on BBC Radio 4 FM

Seven years after being paralysed by a sniper's bullet in Sarajevo, 27-year-old
Faruk Sabanovic has become an inspiration to many thousands like him, disabled by the war in Bosnia.
He has become a vociferous campaigner for their rights demanding equality and not pity.
George Arney meets this remarkable young man and asks whether Bosnia should take its cue from Faruk and finally become self-reliant.
And in the wake of September 11th, Arney also reports on the west's unease over the vast amounts of Saudi money being channelled into the country.

(Repeated Monday 8.30pm)
