Protest Erupts in Sofia Demanding Interior Minister's Resignation
A protest unfolded in front of the Interior Ministry headquarters in Sofia on Monday, as citizens demanded the resignation of outgoing Interior Minister Kalin Stoyanov
The high-profile “obstruction of justice” trial against Bulgaria's former Interior Minister Tsvetan Tsvetanov may be held behind closed doors.
The Prosecution has submitted the files against Tsvetanov to the secret registry of the Sofia City Court, reports the daily Sega.
The reason for classifying the case is that it deals with special surveillance devices.
The indictment stems from Tsvetanov's refusal to endorse 6 prosecutor's requests to grant a permit for the use of special surveillance devices during an investigation against Orlin Todorov, former head of Veliko Tarnovo's regional anti-mafia unit.
The alleged violation was discovered during the investigation against former Interior Ministry official, the ex-Head of the Main Directorate for Combatting Organized Crime, GDBOP, Stanimir Florov, who is believed to be a close ally of the former Interior Minister.
Judge Dimitrina Angelova will reveal on Thursday whether the case will be classified.
