A relatively small fine of BGN 1 500 and a suspended sentence are the most likely sanctions faced by Prosecutor's son Biser Andreev and another driver for killing two people with their cars.

The news was reported by the Bulgarian 24 Chassa (24 Hours) daily, citing their own sources.

The incident happened a little bit after 1 am last Friday when an Audi with Sofia registration, driven by a 23-year-old man, traveling on Bulgaria Boulevard, hit sidewise a BMW, also with Sofia license plates, driven by a 21-year-old man.

The impact sent the automobiles on the sidewalk where a man, 39, and a woman, 34, have been standing near a public transportation bus stop. The woman died on the spot and the man - in the hospital shortly after the incident.

There are suspicions that the two drivers were part of the fairly new game, known as "Russian road roulette" – a form of drag racing which is played every night at intersections throughout the Bulgarian capital

There is only one effective sentence in Bulgaria for premeditated traffic murder, dating from the 80s, the daily reminds. To prove quilt there is need of evidence of premeditation and/or elevated alcohol blood levels.

In the Friday deadly incident both drivers, Biser, 21, and Lyudmil, 23, tested negative for alcohol. They cannot be accused in a hit-and-run either, since they remained on the spot and applied all effort to help.

Biser has gotten his driver's license 2.5 years ago; Lyudmil – 3 years ago. They had a number of small traffic violations such as illegal parking and driving without a seatbelt.

The technical expert report is expected in a month. It is supposed to shed more light on what exactly happened. Suspicions the young men knew each other and/or were involved in a drag race remain unproven.
