One of the most famous luxury bars in Bulgaria capital's downtown was bombed soon after midnight Wednesday. There were no casualties or injuries at the Sofia bar "Nero" as it was closed Tuesday night but a lot of damage was caused to surrounding buildings, Darik Radio reported.

The explosion, which was caused by roughly 400 grams of T.N.T, damaged the buildings surrounding Nero, breaking windows and causing slight structural damage to buildings on the central �Vitosha Boulevard'.

The bar itself was completely destroyed. The security at Nero reported that a man had left a small packet at the door shortly before the explosion.

Nero's owner is the scandalous Nikolay Metodiev - Pileto (The Chicken). He is famous for having been found not guilty recently for smuggling USD 4 M of Chinese goods through the Kalotina - Promahon and Kulata - Promahon border crossings on the Greece - Bulgaria border.
