The Minister of Interior of Bulgaria, Tsvetan Tsvetanov, reiterated Monday his strong critics towards the country’s judicial system, saying he is alarmed by the way the Courts are releasing top criminals arrested by the police.
Tsvetanov pointed out that this is very disappointing to the public at large, which expects elimination of crime and safe conditions, explaining his often strong words regarding magistrates are not a desire for provocation or confrontation, but a response to the worries of common Bulgarians, which they share with him every day.
The Minister gave as example the 3 people detained in the capital Sofia for 9 robberies, one making full confessions, but all at large now, because the judge let them go.
“This is police work round-the-clock, but when they are let go – what is then the impression of both citizens and criminals?” Tsvetanov says, adding the problem continues to be the unreformed judicial system.
The Minister reiterated his support for the idea of the establishment of special tribunals that will deal speedily and only with organized crime cases. He informed the proposal has been submitted with the Parliament and the realization of the idea is only a matter of time, declining to offer an exact deadline. Tsvetanov, however, pointed out it is important these tribunals begin functioning by the beginning of 2011.
