Dženan Memić was found with severe head injuries in February 2016, in the Ilidža area of Sarajevo. The 22-year-old man succumbed to injuries a week later. Initially, authorities claimed he was injured in a traffic accident, but his family contested this explanation, alleging foul play. The case took a dramatic turn when evidence suggested that the investigation had been manipulated to conceal the true circumstances of Memić's death.

The subsequent legal proceedings against the accused Zijad Mutap, his daughter Alisa Ramić, police officers Hasan Dupovac and Josip Barić and hotel receptionist Muamer Ožegović unfolded over several years, culminating in a controversial verdict in July 2023.

In July 2021, the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina confirmed the indictment against Zijad Mutap and others, accusing them of organized crime, obstruction of justice and providing false statements. At a plea hearing on August 25, 2021, all defendants pleaded not guilty.

Prosecutors alleged that Zijad Mutap orchestrated a cover-up involving his daughter Alisa and several others to manipulate evidence and mislead authorities about the cause of Memić's injuries. The group was accused of falsifying reports, tampering with video surveillance, and misleading investigators. However, the prosecution could not establish the exact circumstances of Memić's death, leading to conflicting court rulings.

The main trial began in October 2021. The first-instance verdict acquitted all accused due to insufficient evidence. In a second-instance trial, Alisa Ramić and Hasan Dupovac were convicted in 2023. Alisa received a 2.5-year prison sentence for providing false testimony, while Dupovac was sentenced to three years for abuse of power. The final ruling, issued in July 2023, upheld Alisa Ramić's prison sentence but acquitted others, including her father.

The inconsistent legal outcomes and the inability to determine Memić's cause of death have fuelled distrust in Bosnia's judicial system.

Despite the convictions, the central mystery remains unsolved: How did Dženan Memić sustain fatal injuries, and who was responsible? The case highlights serious concerns about judicial transparency and the rule of law.

Dženan Memić's family continues to insist that he was murdered and that certain individuals within the judicial and police system have protected those responsible by steering previous investigation in the wrong direction.

In February 2025, ahead of the ninth anniversary of the young man's death, the circumstances surrounding the death of Dženan Memić once again came under police scrutiny. The Federal Police Administration has taken over the investigation into the case.
