ROME – Bosnian police have issued an arrest warrant for an Italian man who allegedly oversaw the issuing of fake medical degrees from a made-up university in Bosnia-Herzegovina, police said.
Salvatore Messina, from Marsala in Sicily, is at the centre of an international manhunt after journalistic and police investigations revealed that the international university in Gorazde, Bosnia was a “ghost” university – it didn’t really exist. The university had been issuing fake medical degrees which were in use throughout Europe, in countries including Italy, Switzerland and Croatia.
