When we talk about the criminal proceedings that are being conducted against the head of customs and other persons, the serious display reminds me of a bygone era. Emanuil Yordanov, former Minister of Internal Affairs, stated this to the BNR.
"As a person who has participated in such cases, I can say that they start loudly and end extremely quietly, deliberately removed from the public interest".
If we talk hypothetically, I don't see any problem defending such an accused, Yordanov said.
"As for the first examination of the measure of remand - I always warn my clients that in it the court is not endlessly critical of the prosecution. However, I believe that when a person is accused, there must be sufficient evidence of his guilt.
If anything can summarize what is happening at the moment, it is the word fair, Yordanov said in the show "Nedelya 150".
"For a long time, the relationship between the participants in the assembly was very far from what is normal political behavior. An ordeal that lasted nine months. We finally got where we started from".
Kalin Stoyanov and Zhivko Kotsev will hardly work normally, the former interior minister also noted.
"The Chief Secretary is the person who directs the professional activities of the Ministry. It is within his competence how the local police will take care of these people who are already known as vote buyers and how the specific sections where the vote is most often skewed will be guarded.
The General Secretary can give instructions to the regional director and to all the people who work on the spot.
The rapid turnover of directors suggests that they may be more inclined to defer to the minister than to the chief secretary.
I did not have any information about Martin Bojanov-Notary, explained Yordanov.
"But there are not a few people who try to make easy money through fraud at the expense of the authority of the judicial system".
It is a surprise for Yordanov that Interior Minister Kalin Stoyanov refuses to provide information, including to MPs, whether Bojanov was an associate of the Ministry of the Interior.
"By law, people's representatives have the right to work with classified information. In addition, Bojanov's death provides an opportunity to declassify the information and handle it.
