Bulgaria's Interior Minister Tsvetan Tsvetanov has reiterated his critics towards the country's judicial system, while commenting on the expected EC report.
“The judicial system in Bulgaria today does not respond to the needs of the society and the coutry as a EU member state,” Tsvetanov said Tuesday.
The minister's comment came as a response to the expected critics by the European Commission towards the judicial system in Bulgaria,
Tsvetanov added that critics, pointed in the EC report, will be well-grounded. However, he said he will comment more after the report is official published.
The Bulgarian Interior Minister has also noted the discrepancies between the job of the police and the court,
“The police is doing everything possible to perfect the charges and the proofs against the key figures of Bulgaria's underworld, and then they receive smaller sentences,” Tsvetanov said.
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.
