The controversial appointment of a close friend to Interior Minister Tsvetanov as Chair of one of the most important Courts in the country, is the latest scandal to shake Bulgaria's judicial system. File photo
Vladmira Yaneva, whose appointment as Chair of the Sofia City Court, was overturned by Bulgaria's Supreme Administrative Court (VAS) vows to appeal the rule.
A three-member VAS panel ruled in favor of the other candidate for the post, Velichka Tsanova, who filed the claim. The rule, however, was signed by only two of the three judges in the panel. The third one had refused to put his signature and had withdrawn from the case.
The VAS decision is now being appealed before a five-member VAS panel, which is the last and highest instance to rule in the case.
