Volen Siderov, leader of nationalist party Ataka, has notified Bulgaria's Chief Prosecutor Sotir Tsatsarov about worrying delays in repair works at three viaducts.

Siderov submitted Friday a tip-off to Tsatsarov about the delayed repairs which had been financed by the former center-right GERB government with an extra allocation of BGN 70 M in 2012.

He specified that the money had been allocated for urgent repairs of viaducts and bridges, including three viaducts on the Hemus and Trakia highways.

The leader of the nationalist party, as cited by dnevnik.bg, claimed that the money had been transferred by the GERB Cabinet but the projects had registered next to no progress for a year.

Siderov insisted that the prosecutor's office had to investigate where the money had gone and if there was a case of criminally culpable inaction on the part of former Regional Development Minister Lilyana Pavlova.

The nationalist leader vowed that the tip-off would be the first in a series of signals about infringements of the former GERB government and the caretaker government of Prime Minister Marin Raykov.

He suggested that the caretaker government had already sealed a number of real estate deals which would soon be referred to the Chief Prosecutor.
