- Lejla won the Miss Croatia contest in 1998, only to lose it five days later when the Croatian organizer, Milan Seckovic, declared irregularities and called for a second vote. Some media reports have suggested that nationalists within the government initiated Sehovic's removal, because they couldn't stand to have a Muslim representing Croatia. A Roman Catholic, Ivana Petkovic was pronounced the new winner. After an international outcry that the competition had been rigged, the organizers and Miss Sehovic's lawyer reached a compromise. Under the deal, struck after Sehovic's lawyer threatened a lawsuit for racial discrimination, Sehovic represented Croatia in 1998, while Miss Petkovic, represented Croatia next year in 1999,.
