Chairman of "Civil Block" Ivan Geshev held an action in front of the detention center in Shumen, where people from his list were repressed and arrested, PIK reported.
2 days ago at a briefing, the former chief prosecutor explained that the mayor of Omurtag Eshref Eshrefov, his brother Jeffer Eshrefov and their father Hasan Hasanov were arrested on charges of organized crime. The brothers Eshref and Jeffer are respectively first and second in the list of "Civic Bloc" for Targovishte.
Geshev was adamant that it was a political action. He threatened not to let things go like this, and today is the first step of the actions he will take in support of the three arrested.
"The big televisions are managed by Boyko Borisov and Delyan Peevski. This is a political order because they do not support GERB, PPDB and DPS. Eshref is a candidate for MP and a candidate for MEP. Although he has immunity, he is still in custody. He is in custody because he has an opinion, because he cares about the interests of you, the citizens of Omrutag. Peevski, Borisov, Petkov are afraid", Geshev is categorical.
Dozens of citizens of Omurtag gathered on the spot demanding the release of the detained Eshref Eshrefov.
"I have checked - there are no grounds for their detention. They are political prisoners," the former chief prosecutor is emphatic.
"They must think I'm going to storm the detention center. I'm sure that everything will go peacefully", said Geshev on the occasion of the increased police presence in the area.
The chairman of the "Civic Bloc" announced that he will also go to the court in Targovishte, where the remand order for Eshref's brother - Jefer Eshrefov - is being considered.
"They take you into custody when you have a civil position. Let's support them with applause", urged the former chief prosecutor.
