The National Assembly committee of inquiry which was set up to investigate the facts and circumstances connected with the interruption of the signal of Horizont channel of the Bulgarian National Radio for nearly 5 hours on September 13 heard this country’s Prosecutor General Sotir Tsatsarov. Sotir Tsatsarov said that there are two versions about the BNR case-the version of the Director of the Technical Department Plamen Kostov and the version of BNR Director General Svetoslav Kostov. Plamen Kostov and Svetoslav Kostov will have an eye-to-eye meeting, because of the divergence of their testimony, Sotir Tsatsarov said.
