The specialized prosecutor's office and the military prosecutor's office entered the presidential administration building and searched two offices. The action is based on two separate pre-trial proceedings, said Chief Prosecutor Ivan Geshev. One is an investigation into trading in influence, in which Presidential Secretary for Legal Affairs and Anti-Corruption Plamen Uzunov and businessman Plamen Bobokov were questioned as witnesses. The other is related to an adviser to the president who presented materials under the Law on the Protection of Classified Information in an unregulated manner, Geshev said. 

The State Agency for National Security has denied the access to classified information of Plamen Uzunov and of the Secretary of the President for Security and Defense Iliya Milushev.
