The Sofia City Prosecutor's Office will press charges of causing death with possible intent against the two drivers of the cars involved in the accident. According to investigators, the two drivers organized illegal car race and drove the cars at a speed of over 150 km/h. The state prosecution is about to extend the detention of the men to 72 hours, and in the coming days it will ask the court to impose the most severe measure of restraint on them - "detention in custody". Two brothers were traveling in one of the cars, and three men in the other. Blood samples and DNA material were taken from all of them.
