PM, Finance Minister, Budget Committee Chair questioned in pre-trial proceedings

The Prime Minister Boyko Borissov, the Minister of Finance Vladislav Goranov and the Chair of the Budget Committee in the Parliament Menda Stoyanova on June 22 were interviewed by the Prosecutor's Office in the pre-trial proceedings against the accused gambling Bulgarian businessman Vassil Bozhkov, who is currently in the UAE.

They were questioned as witnesses.

All the evidence collected is subject to careful examination, regardless of whether it is indicated in the form of comics on social networks, or in another way, the Prosecutor's office said.

Former gambling businessman Vassil Bozhkov, who has been charged on 18 counts, is being investigated for alleged crimes against the financial and tax system. Bulgaria is seeking his extradition from the UAE.

Bulgaria’s State Agency for National Security is checking Unicredit Bulbank for cash withdrawal to the amount of more than 30 000 BGN from accounts of Bozhkov through authorised persons without notifying the financial intelligence as required by the law on measures against money laundering.
