Magistrates who have delayed cases of criminals with two or more pending cases are to be checked by the Bulgarian Justice Ministry, Anton Stankov, Bulgarian Justice Minister said. Boyko Borisov, Interior Ministry Chief Secretary, announced the list of the criminals’ names at the end of October 2001. The names of magistrates involved in these cases will be made public because they are likely to shed light on cases of corruption. The report on the necessary legislation is to be presented to the Prime Minister Simeon Saxe-Coburg by 8 November, 2001.
