Accused businessmen Vasil Bozhkov and Tsvetan Vassilev, who are outside this country, are partnering with "honest" politicians and "free" journalists to sabotage the work of Bulgaria's justice system. This was announced at a briefing by Siika Mileva, spokesperson of Prosecutor General of Bulgaria, Ivan Geshev.

"We are witnessing how they are making efforts to destroy the independence of the investigative bodies in an attempt to preserve what they stole from the people." Later the prosecution published intelligence recordings of conversations of Bozhkov, who is hiding in Dubai, with a journalist and a politician, according to which Bozhkov was behind the civic protests.
