The man who caused the death of the woman on Blvd. Vl. Vazov, was on probation for possession of more than 16 kg of marijuana

< p>A member of the Sofia City Court (SGS) imposed the most severe measure of remand "detention in custody" of the driver who is accused of causing the death of a woman in an accident on “Vladimir Vazov” Blvd. in Sofia. In their reasons, the magistrates indicated that the accused 72-year-old man had numerous anti-social acts and crimes for which he was rehabilitated, BTA reported.

The judge noted that rehabilitation erases the legal consequences, but by no means the facts.

The reasons state that the man was the author of numerous violations of the Road Traffic Act related to acts of speeding.

The court also considered that there is a very real danger of committing a crime, due to the defendant's past, evident from his criminal record, especially since the current crime was committed during a probationary period for another conviction for a serious intentional crime, it was possession for the purpose of distribution of high-risk narcotic substances - more than 16 kg of marijuana.

Before the court, the detainee pointed out that he did not go through a red light, but a green one, and asked for a lighter punishment.
