The Constitutional Court (CS) will decide whether there is a reason to cancel the elections. Those who failed to pass the 4% barrier have their reason to doubt the fairness of the elections. Since the last days, there are videos that make us doubt the honesty of the vote. This was stated by the constitutionalist Orlin Kolev in the program "Face to Face" on bTV about the procedure for counting the vote and the case with the brand “DPS“, quoted by novini.bg.
If the ballot bags are opened again, we will not have a guarantee that all the ballots will be inside or that they will all be filled in correctly, he stressed.
„KC in the specifics of the case can be referred to it by 1/5 of the people's representatives (chapter 48), the Council of Ministers, the president, the representatives of the Supreme Court and the KVP and the chief prosecutor. A deadline must be observed by the one who appeals the election result. Within 15 days from the election day. This request must be supported by relevant evidence. Even if specific violations were found, they should lead to a change in the election result. In practice, it cannot be proven that the ballots were filled in”, explained the constitutionalist.
“If we are asking whether it is moral for this SJC to choose a new chief prosecutor, we must also raise the question of whether the law is moral. There is no way lawyers can answer this question. They are the people who make the rules and embody the law. In view of the law, the current SJC is obliged to do it”, explained Orlin Kolev.
He also commented on the case with the brand “DPS“: “This issue was decided for the purpose of the elections. It should be decided between the two wings of the Movement. The court must resolve their dispute. In the DPS, it must be established who is a member, whether it is permissible for the members of a given party to be elected in another”.
