Football referee Anis Kalajdžić has been arrested for the alleged murder of JahićCredit: Jam Press Terrified Jahić ran into a nearby cafe for help and managed to contact the police.
But before authorities could arrive, Kalajdžić allegedly caught up with her and shot her once with a pistol.
The 32-year-old woman is said to have died on the spot in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Kalajdžić, son of a former international manager, reportedly attempted to take his own life after the alleged shooting but the gun jammed.
He was arrested moments later.
Kalajdžić is said to be a football referee in the First League of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
He is also the son of former footballer Avdo Kalajdžić, who played for Velež Mostar and Bursaspor in the 1970s to 1990s.
Avdo, 66, also managed Velež Mostar and briefly served as caretaker manager of the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team.
Local media reported that Kalajdžić had acquired and registered the pistol only a month ago, reportedly for protection due to threats he had received as a referee.
A source close to the investigation told local media that the killing is believed to have been premeditated.
Originally from Kalesija, Jahić had moved from Sarajevo to Mostar for work and had reportedly received threats from Kalajdžić, which she did not report.
Investigators suspect the killing was motivated by the end of their relationship.
Lawmaker Admir Čavalić, who knew Jahić, said: “It’s hard to find words for someone’s death.
“Even harder if that person was younger than you, a student, someone who called you a mentor.
“From the first trainings, organising events, international trips, reading dozens of books, to writing joint academic papers and global projects – a decade of work and growth.
“Watching a student learn, work, and develop into a strong individual. That person was Aldina Jahić, the ‘philosopher,’ as I called her.”
According to her social media, Jahić worked as a project and event director at Atlas Society International.
Admir added: “Aldina could organise an event for 1,000 people, write dozens of papers, speak fluently in English before a full audience outdoors, talk about Bosnia and Herzegovina, and joke.
“She could do everything – that’s how I saw her.”
Cops have now launched an investigation into the alleged murder.

It doesn’t discriminate, touching the lives of people in every corner of society – from the homeless and unemployed to builders and doctors, reality stars and footballers.
It’s the biggest killer of people under the age of 35, more deadly than cancer and car crashes.
And men are three times more likely to take their own life than women.
Yet it’s rarely spoken of, a taboo that threatens to continue its deadly rampage unless we all stop and take notice, now.
