Kalin Litov is no longer deputy director of the General Directorate for Combating Organized Crime. This happened yesterday.
This was revealed to "Nova TV" by Interior Minister Daniel Mitov.
Mitov explained that the director of the General Directorate for Combating Organized Crime has carried out his instructions and disciplinary checks are already underway in the Directorate. Was there an "umbrella" The minister indicated that it will become clear after the actions of the institutions to which the reports on the case have already been sent are completed.
The development comes after the civil association BOETS distributed photos of chats, which they claim are between part of the leadership of the GDBOP and field officers in Plovdiv.
The report claims that on November 19, 2024, the police tried to check a car that was known to them in connection with cigarette smuggling, but they were ordered to immediately withdraw. There is also talk of a possible “umbrella” over the smuggling channel by Kalin Litov, appointed by former Interior Minister Kalin Stoyanov.
