The two bomb explosions at alleged brothels in downtown Sofia, which occurred Sunday night, are motivated by a war for the redistribution of the prostitution services market.

The news was reported by Bulgaria's national private Darik Radio, which cites unofficial sources. The Interior Ministry has not made public any of its versions about the causes for the two blasts.

Some of the people living on the Urvich Street, where the second explosion occurred at the Casablanca striptease bar at 11:30 p.m. on Sunday, commented the bar had in fact been a brothel for about ten years.

They also said there had been frequent melees and firings in the alleged brothel almost every night as well as many cabs which were most likely used to transport the clients.

According to unofficial information, both the Casablanca and the Pantera bars are owned by a Turkish citizen, whose name has not been revealed.

The police have sealed off the area around the alleged brothels, and are conducting secondary inspections on the explosion sites.
