Birshen Ibryamov: Our mistake was that we were silent until Peevski was elected as the chairman of the DPS  - 1

I think the public is aware that this problem, which has been created since the beginning of summer with the split of the DPS, is no longer an internal party problem, but of the entire country, warned Birshen Ibryamovfrom the APS and the husband of the arrested and Ceyhan Ibryamov, elected MP, in an interview with BNR.

"While my colleagues in Ahmed Dogan's APS all summer raised the alarm about the viciousness of the system and the dependencies of the various authorities – from courts through the CEC and to the National Assembly, I hope that what happened in the pre-election campaign and the results of the elections will open the eyes of the parties in the 51st National Assembly, Ibryamova admitted in "Horizont za vas".
About her husband Ceyhan Ibryamov, who was arrested before the elections, she said:

"My husband must be released, not because he was elected as a representative in the 51st National Assembly, but because his detention for a whole month is illegal and unconstitutional. Before he is detained, there is no permission from the Supreme Court, nor from a judge to remove immunity and detention. We hope that there will be a new model of governance in the 51st National Assembly."

For the release of Ceyhan Ibryamova admitted that she is worried that "the law will be violated once again".

"We raised the alarm about political repression on election day. For example, in Varna, our people involved in the organization were arrested and detained throughout the election day, with the sole purpose of not organizing our voters to go to the polls. For Varbitsa, we filed a complaint that the mayor made a poster with the DPS-NN number, and he is not even a candidate, and we received a response to the complaint that since there is no symbol – coat of arms, there is no violation", said Jeyhan Ibryamov's wife, who is Ahmed Dogan's secretary and remained loyal to him, and is with him in the Alliance.
According to her, Ceyhan's arrest affected the Alliance's election results.

"I am far from thinking that he is the only one responsible for the elections, but the Alliance, led by Dogan, has shown that we have an electorate that, despite the pressure and repression, we have 180,000 votes and not one was bought for difference from the other party, where there are about 60,000 votes of our electorate, but under the pressure of the mayors", explained Ibryamova.

Peevski joining the president's call to verify the election results, she commented as follows:

"There is a nice Turkish word for the case of Peevski joining the president – gonsuratlak. In Bulgarian it means, "the thief calls, hold the thief". They confused our voter saying that Dogan is with #8 as in our regions – in this way they also campaigned in Turkey.

She is convinced that the topic is not "Dogan", but what the Bulgarian society will do to stop this lawlessness. "Bullots are counted in a way that pleases the DPS-NN and from the very beginning the CEC was seen by whom it is managed, with one document online outside of working hours, reminded Birshen Ibryamova.
And does she feel guilty for the presence of Peevski for so many years in the DPS, she answered:

"Personally, I feel guilty because of the silence, because we started talking in the party after the election of Peevski as chairman of the DPS. His presence in "Magnitsky" we are not surprised when they accuse someone, it has to be proven. We may be guilty of the silence, but we are not to blame for what has happened in the last year – on the assembly and amendments to the Constitution".

She is adamant that Peevski will also choose a chief prosecutor.

"The fact that there is no other candidate, make no doubt about that," she stated.

And he added that there is no guarantee for Dogan either. "I did not expect my husband to be arrested, from here on anyone can be arrested," warned the wife of Jeyhan Ibryamov, who has been detained for a month now.
