Bulgaria’s Prosecutor General Sotir Tsatsarov announced that the Prosecutor’s Office will check the real estate of the Chairman of the Anticorruption Commission Plamen Georgiev, the son of the Director of the National Investigation Service and the wife of the Chairman of the Supreme Court of Cassation. At the request of Bulgaria’s Premier Boyko Borissov the head of the Bulgarian anti-corruption commission Plamen Georgiev took a leave until the verification is completed. Bulgaria’s Premier Borissov nominated the current Chairman of the National Assembly Legal Affairs Committee Danail Kirilov for the position of Minister of Justice after the resignation of the former Justice Minister Tsetska Tsacheva following the scandal of properties acquired at allegedly below market value. 

Bulgaria’s President Rumen Radev announced that he had withdrawn confidence from the chairman of the anti-corruption agency on Wednesday and invited not him, but the deputy-chairman of the anti-corruption agency to present a report on the fight against high-level corruption at the Consultative Council on National Security next Monday.
