The parents of sisters Rositsa and Kristina Belneyski, the teens who were brutally murdered in 2006, have demanded that the Supreme Court of Cessation return the case for further investigation.
On Wednesday, the girls' father Stoimen Belneyski explained that the family wants the murderer to reveal who his accomplice is.
Fani and Stoimen Belneyski, have also decided to sack their lawyer, Ivo Naydenov.
Lazar Kolev, the only suspect in Bulgaria's high-profile "Belneyski" double murder case, was sentenced to a life imprisonment without parole in June 2011. The Appellate Court in Bulgaria's second largest city of Plovdiv confirmed the life without parole sentence in November 2011.
Sisters Rositsa (18) and Kristina (15) Belneyski went missing in January 2006, after leaving a night club in the town of Pazardzhik. The sisters were found dead at the beginning of February 2006 near the town of Peshtera.
Statements that Kolev may have had an accomplice have emerged on a number of occasions since 2006, some claiming that it may have been a man of high standings in society.
