Hakija Turajlić (1936 – 8 January 1993) was a Bosniak, politician, economist and businessman who served as the Deputy Prime Minister of Bosnia and Herzegovina until he was killed in 1993. Prior to the start of the 1992–1995 war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Turajlić was the director of the multifaceted Bosnian company Energoinvest and as such secured large sums of money for the defense of the country. He was known for his democratic attitude and ability to cooperate, especially for persuading everyone through his own self-denial and hard work. His death at the hands of the Bosnian Serb Army in Stup was one of the great losses that the government was to sustain during the war.
