The "Petrohan - Okolchitsa" case also resonated outside the walls of the National Assembly. The parliamentary groups of the PP-DB and "Vazrazhdane" requested a hearing of the Ministry of Interior and the services, as well as the provision of all documents and reports from the State Agency for National Security and the prosecutor's office. Such a request also came from the "Alliance for Rights and Freedoms" and "Velicie", summarized darik.bg.
The deputies decided to combine two hearings into one, proposed by "There is such a people" and "Vazrazhdane" respectively, regarding the deaths. Both political forces proposed that the Minister of Internal Affairs Daniel Mitov be heard. The ITN also wanted to hear the Minister of Environment and Waters Manol Genov.
Acting Chairman of the National Security Agency Denyo Denev stated from the parliamentary rostrum that there are active criminal proceedings in the case against officials and one who held a high public position at that time for a crime in office.
Bozhidar Bozhanov from "We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria" proposed that representatives of the State Agency for Child Protection (SACP) be included in the hearing, and the Speaker of the National Assembly Raya Nazaryan committed to inviting them.
The questions are related to when Ivaylo Kalushev's non-governmental organization was registered, during whose administration and whether its activities have been checked over the years.
Resigned Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs Filip Popov emphasized to the deputies that “no minister has the right to interfere in the procedural and investigative actions, which are carried out only under the supervision of a prosecutor“, specifying that in nine days the Ministry of Internal Affairs gave four briefings for maximum transparency.
"On January 30, the camper was at a gas station in Burgas, and the recordings show three people with the exact description of Ivaylo Kalushev, Nikolay Zlatkov and Yani's 15-year-old son Makulev. On January 31, they were at a gas station on the "Trakia" highway in the Ihtiman area, heading towards Sofia. A review of the recordings shows that there was a minor girl with them. She was left at her home address. The girl was questioned," Popov said. The Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs gave a detailed account of the camper's route.
"On February 8, at around 9:30 a.m., a report was filed that a parked camper had been found with a deceased person sitting in the front seat. Three bodies were found with gunshot wounds to the heads - Nikolay Zlatkov, 22, Ivaylo Kalushev, 51, and Alexander Makulev, 15. Two firearms were found next to them. The bodies have been transported to Vratsa for autopsy," Filip Popov also said.
Regarding the group's arsenal, the director of the General Directorate of the "National Police", Chief Commissioner Zahari Vaskov, announced that "the person Ivaylo Ivanov has a permit for 16 items, including five smooth-bore rifles and three rifled carbines", while Ivaylo Kalushev legally owned the "Glock" pistols found at the scene. and “Colt“.
Important details about Kalushev's location were provided by the deputy director of the Directorate of the Anti-Corruption Bureau, Emil Borisov, according to whom “through an inquiry to the Starlink company, the location was established in the area of the Ledenika cave near Vratsa“, where the Internet was last used on February 3, and earlier on February 1, the poem “Fight“ was published in Kalushev's profile by Hristo Botev.
The outgoing Minister of Ecology Manol Genov drew attention to the lack of control over the contract with the association and revealed that “the ministry only has a copy of the agreement, but not the original“, as the inspection has established a complete lack of control over the legality of the document.
In June 2024, the State Agency “National Security“ (SANS) received signals against the non-governmental organization related to the “Petrohan“ case, said the acting chairman of the agency Denyo Denev from the parliamentary rostrum.
"On June 13, 2024, the State Agency for National Security received a signal from citizens against the non-governmental organization “National Agency for Control of Protected Areas“. On June 15, 2024, a second signal from the same individuals was received by the official email of SANS. The two signals are addressed to the State Agency for Child Protection, the Ministry of Interior, the Prosecutor's Office of the Republic of Bulgaria and SANS", added Denev.
"On June 17, 2024, a notarized declaration from the senders was received by the official email of SANS that they were withdrawing their signals. Nevertheless, SANS authorities took action to verify the allegations in the signals, and the results were sent in February 2025 to the Sofia City Prosecutor's Office under competence", Denev also emphasized.
"Regarding the speculation in the public space, I emphasize that SANS officers were not present during the initial inspection of the crime scene in the area of the Petrohan hut", said Denyo Denev.
According to him, there is currently an active criminal proceeding in the case against officials and a person holding a high public position at that time for a crime in office, writes NOVA.
The attacks between the formations began from the very beginning of the meeting. Some have already been punished.
"Under the banners of the PP-DB, people with all kinds of deviations are attracted like a magnet, people who believe that there are not two genders, but dozens, and who organize parades," said Kostadin Kostadinov from "Vazrzhadane". The party leader received a remark from the Deputy Speaker of Parliament Kostadin Angelov for the words used.
"He should be expelled not from the hall, but from the planet. He is a slanderer and uses words that are unacceptable on this platform," said Manol Peykov from PP-DB.
Toshko Yordanov from ITN commented: "This is a disgusting story with serious doubts about the protection of the state at that time, in the person of the Minister of Environment and Waters Borislav Sandov, the Minister of Education Nikolay Denkov, the Minister of Interior Boyko Rashkov, the Minister of Justice Nadezhda Yordanova. In a few days, this NGO passes the entire administrative check in negative time, receives permission directly from ministers and ministries, with visits from PP-DB representatives in these areas and with the kind funding of coalition representatives, such as Vasil Terziev and Sasha Bezuhanova."
And Radostin Vassilev from MECH pointed out: "For me, for there to be six corpses - one of a child - it means there is something wrong with the state institutions. I know that I will not let my 15-year-old child go with some people to some house in the forest. Given such data, Terziev should resign as mayor of Sofia."
