District Prosecutor's Office-Plovdiv filed a protest in the District Court-Plovdiv against a judicial act of the District Court-Plovdiv, with which on October 24, 2024, a sentence of 3 years of imprisonment was passed for an initial “common“ mode“ against Borislav and Valentin Dinkovi (aged 21). , reported the press center of the prosecutor's office. They were convicted for having, on 20.07.2023-21.07.2023 in the village of Tsalapitsa, in complicity as perpetrators, assisted Rangel Bizyurev, who committed on 20.07.2023 in the village of Tsalapitsa the intentional murder of the 24-year-old Dimitar Malinov, to avoid criminal prosecution, without having agreed with him before committing the act itself.
At the court session on October 24, 2024, in the indictment, the representative of the District Prosecutor's Office-Plovdiv requested the maximum possible sentence provided by law, namely 5 years of imprisonment with an initial “strict” endurance mode.
The protest filed today by the Plovdiv District Prosecutor's Office insists on increasing the punishment of Borislav and Valentin Dinkovi to the amount requested by the prosecutor - 5 years of imprisonment for each of them.
BTA recalls that yesterday the Twelfth Chamber of the Plovdiv District Court sentenced the twins Borislav and Valentin Dinkovi from the village of Tsalapitsa to three years of imprisonment in the initial general regime, deducting the time they were in custody, as of 31.07. 2023 year.
The sentence can be appealed within 15 days before the District Court in Plovdiv.
BTA recalls that Rangel Bizyurev was detained in Denmark on November 29 last year, after a four-month search. During the months in which Bizyurev was being sought, relatives of the murdered boy and residents of Tsalapitsa in Stamboliyski, Plovdiv and Sofia protested demanding a quick and fair trial against all those involved in the case. The death of 24-year-old Dimitar Malinov occurred as a result of a severe beating that was inflicted on him on July 20 at around 10:30 p.m. His body was found buried about a kilometer from where he was last seen.
