Court in Kočani to decide whether Iva Mihaylova can receive medical treatment in Bulgaria
Bulgarian citizen Iva Mihaylova is awaiting an important decision from the court in the city of Kočani, North Macedonia. She was severely injured in a road accident on the road between Kočani and Štip, which led to serious health problems. Since October, the young woman has been forced to remain in the city, as her freedom of movement is restricted due to pending legal proceedings.
The main question concerning Iva's loved ones is whether the judicial authorities will allow her to leave the country to continue her treatment in Bulgaria. According to information from her relatives, her health condition requires specialized medical care that she cannot receive locally in Kočani. Mihaylova's lawyers are insisting on humane treatment and the opportunity for her to be transported to a hospital in her home country.
The case has sparked a wide public response, as it concerns the rights of Bulgarian citizens abroad. Diplomatic services are monitoring the situation closely to provide the necessary support and ensure that legal procedures are followed. The next court hearing is currently awaited, which is expected to provide an answer to the request for the patient's transfer.
Despite the difficulties, Iva's family expresses hope that the judicial institution will take her serious condition into account. All interested parties are hoping for a quick decision that will allow the young woman to receive adequate medical care and recover in a calm environment.
