Two prosecutors from the Supreme Cassation Prosecutor's Office paid a working visit to the United Arab Emirates. In Abu Dhabi, they discussed at a meeting at the Attorney General's Office the signing of a memorandum of cooperation between the two prosecutor's offices, as well as matters of mutual interest. In Abu Dhabi, businessman Vasil Bozhkov, wanted by Bulgaria on 14 charges, remains under house arrest. The Specialized Criminal Court of Appeal returned to custody the wife of Vasil Bozhkov - Elena Dineva. She was previously released on a record bail of 750,000 euros. The court found that there were reasons to assume that Dineva was complicit in the organized criminal group led by Vasil Bozhkov.
