A routine procedure almost thwarted the hearing of Deputy Minister of Interior Lyubomir Yosifov on the search for Petar Petrov, known by his nickname Pepi Euroto.
Initially, it was planned that the Minister of Interior - Daniel Mitov from GERB would be heard on the matter. However, he is busy with another work commitment. For this reason, his deputy was sent to the National Assembly instead of him. Namely - Lyubomir Yosifov.
In order to physically enter the plenary hall, he must be admitted by the deputies through a vote - in principle, a completely routine procedure.
It is at the request of the PP-DB regarding information from the group "BG elves" that Pepi Evroto is on the route between Bulgaria and Greece.
Former investigator Petyo Petrov - Evroto, was wanted by the Bulgarian state in eight countries, as well as in the cities of Sofia and Vratsa.
"As part of the search for Evroto, addresses for which there is information that he uses for living or for work were checked: in Sofia and Vratsa. Conversations were held with his relatives, checks were carried out for used telephone numbers, data was requested from mobile and internet operators. Partner services are periodically asked about countries for which there is information that Petrov has resided. Inquiries have been made about crossing borders, including outside the European Union, about registrations in hotels, checks by control bodies and about owned properties. These inquiries have been sent to Greece, Turkey, Albania, Serbia, Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and North Macedonia", said Deputy Minister of the Interior Lyubomir Yosifov.
Places related to Pepi Euroto are also periodically checked. "I assure you that the Ministry of the Interior will continue working on the case, making every effort to establish the whereabouts of Petyo Petrov and detain him", Deputy Minister Yosifov concluded his presentation.
The hearing is at the request of the PP-DB group. They requested a hearing of the services about Petyo Euroto after IT enthusiasts made claims that they had located his location. It turned out, however, that most of the PP-DB deputies were not present at the beginning of the hearing. There were only 15 out of a total of 35 people in the hall.
"Where are the people for your hearing", Tsoncho Ganev shouted to them from his seat. After that, "Vazrazhdane" voted against allowing Deputy Minister Yosifov into the hall, which would have hindered the hearing for one idea.
