According to investigators, contract killing was most likely behind the criminal incident that took place in Sofia last night. At around 8 pm on Simeonovsko Shosse, a 46-year-old man was shot twice in the head while waiting at a traffic lights in his luxury car. Investigators work on all possible versions but forensic scientists consider contract killing the most probable, as the killer was waiting under the bridge and was masked. The victim, Nikolay Drakopolov, is the owner of a car dealership and has criminal record. A woman and an 11-year-old child were also in the car, but they were not injured. The perpetrator fled the scene. A second inspection of the crime scene is to take place today, it was reported.
