Ivaylo Mirchev demands answers regarding the fugitives in the 'Starlink' case
Published
Ivaylo Mirchev, a Member of Parliament from 'We Continue the Change – Democratic Bulgaria', has submitted an official inquiry to President Rumen Radev regarding a serious national security lapse. The question concerns individuals accused of setting fire to a 'Starlink' company office who managed to leave Bulgarian territory before being apprehended by law enforcement authorities.
According to available information, the accused crossed the border undisturbed, which raises serious questions regarding the performance of the security services. Mirchev is demanding clarity on whether the institutions under the direct control of the presidential administration showed negligence or allowed a deliberate oversight in monitoring the suspects.
The case has sparked a wide public outcry, as it involves an attack on a facility of a technology company with international significance. The MP emphasizes that the escape of the accused undermines the prestige of the Bulgarian judicial system and casts doubt on the effectiveness of border control in the country.
At this moment, the presidency has yet to provide a detailed comment on the case. It is expected that the institutions will clarify what measures have been taken to locate the individuals and whether internal investigations have been initiated to identify the responsible officials who allowed the accused to leave the country.
