„I was called in for questioning because I refused to serve two huge political parties and buy Roma votes. I am a sufficiently influential person in the Roma community and I dare not sell the future of my grandchildren and sons, of my ethnicity. That's why they called me – just to drink coffee upstairs.“
This is what Kiril Kirov, known as Kiro the Japanese, told the media after the interrogation at the SDVR, quoted by bTV. Earlier today, it became clear that a search operation was taking place at his home in the capital's “Faculty” district.
He specified that nothing was seized during the action.
„They didn't take anything from my home. There was no point in doing it. Ask them what they did in the “Faculty”, he also stated.
„They put someone who worked in the elections. Does he have money to buy them votes. I won't call his name, I call him a bearded vietnamese worm, he filed a report against me for threatening him. My business is worth 100 million – I have nothing to threaten about”, Kiril Kirov added.
Earlier in the day, the Ministry of the Interior confirmed that searches were underway. The area was cordoned off and there was an increased police presence. Later, the law enforcement authorities indicated that, in addition to Kiril Kirov's home, the object of the action were also other properties related to him. It started at 4:00 this morning
