Bulgaria: Who Killed Laura Palmer?

“Who killed Laura Palmer?” This is the question that drove "Peaksmania" throughout 1990 and 1991. Now the question has a Bulgarian version: “Who appointed Delyan Peevski?”

The genre of the show is horror, drama, thriller and science fiction, while the genre of our local show is still unknown.

On Tuesday, the Bulgarian Constitutional Court reinstated the controversial media mogul Delyan Peevski as a lawmaker after the cancellation of his appointment as the head of the State Agency for National Security (ДАНС or DANS), the Bulgarian secret service.

This decision singlehandedly jolted back to life an anti-goverment protest movement, which had significantly lost steam since the end of the summer.

During his previous stint as member of parliament, Peevski preferred to play truant.

After the disastrous decision to appoint him as DANS head, he completely stopped going to work. Why does he need to be reinstated as MP then? This is a much more valid question than the question everybody asks.

The hysteria discredited Bulgaria's parliament as never before. Even if it takes good decisions, they will be overshadowed by the scandal.

This is because the court ruling showed once again that some people in Bulgaria are untouchable.
