His words come hours after caretaker Interior Minister Ivan Demerdzhiev announced at a briefing in the Council of Ministers that there are suspects for what happened on the Sofia-Samokov road. 

In the meantime, the inspection of the site of the detonated explosive device has been completed and from now on we will work with the operational services of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the security services and all international partner services, the spokesperson also said.
