The father of a 12-year-old boy with autism who disappeared a week ago near Pernik underwent a polygraph test after accusations that he could be involved in the disappearance of his son. He spent over 4 hours in the police station in the city and then wrote on Facebook: "The lie detector showed that I was telling the truth, but it doesn't matter to me because my son is still missing!”

The search for the missing boy continues. A total of 60 employees of the regional police directorates in Pernik, Blagoevgrad, Kyustendil and teams of the National Police will make a repeated and more thorough inspection of hard-to-reach places. So far, a 20-kilometer radius from the place of the child's disappearance, the recordings of video cameras of private and public buildings in the area, as well as nearby water reservoirs, have been checked in detail.
