People from all over the country protested near the village of Telish, where Siyana died ten months ago and where Dr. Tsvetan Kostadinov lost his life two days ago under the same circumstances.
They want the horror on the roads to stop and for this they blocked the main road between Pleven and Lukovit for hours.
Exactly 10 months after a truck speeding on the wet and uneven asphalt entered the oncoming lane and literally swept away the car in which 12-year-old Siyana was riding, people say that nothing has changed. Only the number of victims on dirt roads is increasing and that is why they are protesting again.
Nikolai Popov, Siyana's father: "We continue to die on the roads and proof of this is the incident with Dr. Kostadinov, who was taken away in the same way as Siyana."
Ivaylo Mihaylov: "This is one in a million, "Russian roulette". What should we move with, armored personnel carriers, so that we can withstand the impact of a shooting."
Ivaylo Mihaylov says that he and his family are living a second life. On August 18, he went on vacation with his wife and two children, ages 15 and 8. Shortly before Telish, a Romanian truck came into the oncoming lane at 100 kilometers per hour.
Ivaylo Mihaylov: "I preferred to fold the doors, the guardrail, just to save myself. God's will saved us. That's how far I passed him with the family, with the children. They were scared. It was exactly 1-2 seconds before this happened."
The driver of the heavy truck explained that due to the bumps and the wet asphalt he lost control of the heavy machine.
Ivaylo Mihaylov: "Look at this section. How many people have to die, how many sacrifices we have to make, this blood tax he did not stop."
Petar Stanev from Varna says that he came to the protest because of the lack of justice and the negligence of the institutions.
Petar Stanev: "As you can see, for two weeks there have been numerous accidents, as well as on this road, where Siyana also died, may God forgive her, as well as all those who died on the road. The institutions are simply inactive."
Petar lost his grandmother, swept away along with another woman at the Kolkhoz market in Varna days before Christmas. He had to search for witnesses to the tragedy himself.
Petar Stanev: "I have brought a dozen witnesses, through my team, to the investigating police officer. My case was on December 22, then before the holidays and I expected that they would cover the case, that it would not be paid attention, as it happened. The perpetrator who killed two women has not been detained. He was in a hospital considering the blow he suffered and they said that he was sick, which has nothing to do, in my opinion, with reality."
And because of the accident in which Dr. Tsvetan Kostadinov lost his life, the dissatisfied will protest on February 6 in front of the court in Veliko Tarnovo, insisting that the driver Dimitar Dimitrov remain detained, and not be released on bail of 8,000 euros, as the Pleven District Court decided yesterday.
