Biography
Bajramović was born in Sarajevo. Prior to the war he was a petty criminal who spent time in prison. After his release, Ćelo rose to become the most powerful gangster in Sarajevo and was dubbed the "Godfather of Sarajevo" by The New York Times in 1993.[4]
When the war began, criminal groups were among the first to resist the Yugoslav People's Army besieging Sarajevo. Ćelo was put in charge of the Dobrinja neighborhood. At the same time, he was head of the military police of Sarajevo and responsible for the central prison.[3] While commanding military police actions, he also engaged in smuggling, racketeering and cross-frontline trading.[5] In the fall of 1993 Bajramović was shot near the heart by a sniper.[4] He was evacuated from the city and returned in 1997.
During the war he was profiled by The New York Times and Vanity Fair magazine.[4] He also appeared in an episode of the PBS program Frontline on the story of Romeo and Juliet in Sarajevo which aired in 1994.[6]
In the post war years Bajramović was often arrested on various charges; in April 2000, he was arrested for murder and spent four years in prison until his conviction was overturned.Шаблон:Cn Meanwhile, Bajramović's health began to decline as a result of the bullet wound to the heart.
