Bulgarian Minister of Interior Tsvetan Tsvetanov has joined the chorus of senior politicans assuring that convicted mobsters known as the Galevi Brothers will be found and brought to jail.

Dupnitsa businessmen Plamen Galev and Angel Hristov were convicted to 3 and 4 years in jail for organized crime activities.

But May 3 it turned out that they are nowhere to be found, after they failed to present themselves to serve their sentences.

"At present we know they are not around. There are many hypotheses. They could be hiding somewhere in the country, or abroad," stated Minister of Interior Tsvetanov when asked by journalists on the case.

In spite of this not too decisive or informative utterance, the police chief assured that the so-called Galevi Brothers could not escape Bulgaria's law enforcement agencies.

"No matter where they are hiding, the Galevi Brothers will be found," said Tsvetanov.

Earlier during the week, Bulgarian PM Boyko Borisov had made a similar statement.

On Wednesday, Plamen Galev had used a Twitter update to mock Tsvetanov and say the two have no intention to give in.
