He will ask the Constitutional Court to say which ones

are his powers

Ivan Demerdzhiev:

The special judge did not justify

expectations, there is a different approach

It is a lie that the recovery and development plan affects the Attorney General. This was stated by Ivan Geshev after a conference dedicated to specialized justice. Asked if it was true that we would not receive funds until the judicial reform was carried out, he explained that it was “another deliberate political lie”. “How will our European partners respect us when we do not respect each other?” He asked. “I know how it all happened, but now politicians are circulating in the media and claiming that Europe wants us to replace the chief prosecutor,” said Ivan Geshev.

“I will retire,

when I judge

that I am not

useful on

the prosecution

and in all the lies that are revealed, it turns out that there is something true “, added Geshev. However, he admitted that he had “personnel errors”.

According to him, the talk “went down to a very low level”, even “false documents from SANS that he had bills somewhere” were released.

“The fact that the politicians want my resignation means that the Bulgarian prosecutor’s office is working very well. Our job is not to be liked, we are not actors “, he repeated his thesis.

Geshev wondered why he should resign.

“Maybe because according to the notification of the prosecutor’s office

were frozen

three billion and

half a lev

Maybe because an indictment was filed against a spy group. One of its members is the head of the department for classified information in the National Assembly. “Maybe because accusations were filed against people whom Bulgarian citizens considered untouchable,” he added.

The chief prosecutor admitted that the prosecutor’s office was worried that “there is a war going on between the institutions, which grows into a personal vendetta, there was even repression against relatives of magistrates.” “Things we forgot are coming back,” Geshev added.

He announced that he would ask the Constitutional Court about the powers of the Prosecutor General.

“We are not worried about the prosecutor’s refusal to be controlled by the court, but this will probably be related to a constitutional change,” Geshev said. He reminded that the Supreme Court of Cassation is of the opinion that this is unconstitutional and will block the courts.

During the discussion, Geshev said there should be reform, but “comprehensive”. “But we are facing

politically

breakthrough attempts

in law and

legality,

disguised as reform and the fight against crime, “he said. Geshev pointed out that there are systematic legislative experiments – change, return, change again, return.

“The Bulgarian Specialized Prosecutor’s Office did not convince Bulgarian citizens of the need for its existence, it showed a different approach,” said Justice Minister Ivan Demerdzhiev, who is also attending the conference. According to him, the main reason is that no results have been achieved in corruption cases at the highest levels of government.

Demerdzhiev gave the example of Romania, where in 2016 1273 people were brought to justice. Of these, three ministers, 16 magistrates, 47 mayors, and 870 sentences came into force.

Demerdzhiev reminded that the ministry offers a new model – specialized departments to the appellate regions.
