The Croatian Journalists Association (HND) on Thursday asked Zagreb mayor Milan Bandic to apologise for a sexist attack on N1 Television reporter Matea Dominikovic, calling on journalists and editors to boycott Bandic's public appearances.

The HND strongly condemned Bandic's latest sexist outburst and joined journalists in their request that he apologise.

The HND said that with his latest comments, Bandic, who is also the president of the BM 365 Work and Solidarity Party, did not want to humiliate only Dominikovic but journalists in general, and that this was not his first shameful outburst before the press, especially women journalists.

On Tuesday, Dominikovic was asking Bandic about Zagreb's zoning plan and other topics and his response was: "You again. You nag. If only you knew how you excite me, how you delight me, how you entertain me."

The response has been strongly condemned by the city's Gender Equality Commission and Gender Equality Ombudswoman Visnja Ljubicic, who called it sexual harassment.
