The development will take place outside the building of the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC) and it is of utmost importance who the parties will be in 51 th National Assembly and in what percentage ratio.
This is what Ivan Bregov from the Legal Program of the Institute for Market Economy told BNR in connection with the nomination of Borislav Sarafov as the only candidate in the procedure for the election of the chief prosecutor.
"In this composition of the SJC it has been proven that it is completely susceptible to political influence, not to say that it completely follows the party platforms and feelings about who should take the top posts in the judiciary,", commented he.
According to Bregov, in previous compositions of the SJC, it was observed how "political affiliations very quickly transform to the powerful of the day":
"I feel like now the momentum is being used for this type of influence to be realized in the election of this attorney general as well.
The lawyer opined that asking the Constitutional Court to interpret paragraph 23 (which says that the SJC with an expired mandate cannot make the election of the Chief Prosecutor and the President of the Supreme Administrative Court) of the Transitional and Final Provisions in the Sixth Amendment of the Constitution is " the only possible procedural approach is to seek a suspension of the procedure (for the election of the chief prosecutor and the chairman of the Supreme Administrative Court), which was already stopped once again with a question to the SC in June last year":
"However, I have a different view of this paragraph. The Supreme Court has already ruled on the merits with decision number 13 from July of this year. Paragraph 23 had the task of reorganizing the SJC after its division into two Councils - prosecutorial and judicial. This was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. Now paragraph 23 has nothing to settle by itself".
According to him, if the SC grants a possible request and allows consideration of paragraph 23, "then it is at the discretion of the SJC whether to stop the procedure".
In the program "Horizon for you" Ivan Bregov appealed to the candidates for people's representatives, and some of them are also current MPs, to raise the topic of "Ceyhan Ibryamov":
"Because they will be the next ones to be cooked according to the same model that Ceyhan Ibryamov was cooked by".
"In the judicial system, silence is permanently and consistently bought through two channels - one is reducing the workload or promoting the fictitious one, and the other is through rewards and bonuses, the so-called caviar corruption", Bregov also commented in connection with the decision of two judicial panels, which confirmed that there was no problem in the detention of Ibryamov, about which constitutionalists expressed doubts.
