Sajma was born in 1962 in Pobuđe, part of the Bratunac Municipality in Northeastern Bosnia. She finished elementary school and married at the age of 18. She had a son and a daughter soon after getting married, and moved to Srebrenik.
Sadly, Sajma’s husband died in a work-related accident in 1990. When the war began, Sajma left Srebrenik with her children and sought refuge in Slovenia. In 1996 Sajma returned to Srebenik with her children. Her daughter now studies pharmacy and her son is employed in Srebrenik.
Sajma is a very kind, hospitable woman who lives with her extended family in a reconstructed home. She commutes one hour from Srebrenik to Tuzla each day.
