The Sofia construction control body has found an illegally placed traffic light at the place where electricity killed a child passing through the shaft in front of the Sofia-based St. Ivan Rilski Hospital. An punitive act has been initiated against the mayor of Sofia Yordanka Fandakova as a result of the completed inspection of the site. 

It was established that no approved projects and building permits were found in the area of ​​the hospital. The only exception is the issued permit for re-asphalting of the boulevard and replacement of a street water supply system. 
The control body points out that the issued statement of findings gives sufficient grounds for removing the traffic light.
