On June 25, 2024, the court adjourned the case, and the reason was that a medical examination was appointed in the previous session, which is not yet ready.
In April 2024, the first hearing was held in the case, which is already in the second instance, after the Sofia City Court sentenced the woman's husband, Orlin Vladimirov, and his father, Plamen, to life imprisonment, but the sentence was appealed.
The court appointed an expert to determine the mechanism of the murder and the causes of the woman's death. The expertise was requested by the defense of the two defendants. For its preparation, all the data in the case, the results of the autopsy of the victim will be used, and it will determine whether Orlin Vladimirov's claim that Evgenia hit her head on a cupboard led to her death.
After this examination, we will have to plead and see what the court will decide", suggested lawyer Ivo Naydenov, lawyer of the deceased's relatives. He added that if there is a difference in expert opinion, a new, arbitration expertise may be required.
We remind you that Evgenia's body was found in a suitcase near Pernik after a month-long search in 2021. Her husband and his father are accused of the murder, who, according to the investigators, helped hide the traces of the crime.
