A protest car procession of 40 vehicles under the motto “Waking up the powers that be” drove through Sofia at a speed of 20 kms. per hour and reached Boyan government residence. The protesters shouted “Resign!”, BNR’s Horizont channel reports.

Arman Babikyan from the so-called “toxic trio” which organized the protest stated that the message the procession wanted to convey was of “sweeping away the virus from the powers that be”.

The protesters returned to the centre of Sofia to block the entrance of the Bulgarian National TV building with the so-called “Friday citizens’ Panorama”, organized by Boec civil rights movement to stop politicians from taking part in the weekly current affairs programme Panorama on BNT1 channel of public service TV.
