Bulgaria’s Minister of Interior Boyko Rashkov said in Parliament that he had received threats. He made this statement in response to a question whether he was aware of the threat to MP Hristo Petrov from “We Continue the Change”, better known as Itso Hazarta. 

“No. I am not aware of this. Do you know that I have received threats as well. You can ask GERB party”, Minister Rashkov said. Earlier today, MP Hristo Petrov said from the Parliament’s rostrum that he received a message that If he continued to support Kiril Petkov’s and Assen Vassilev’s political formation, he would lose the most precious thing he has.

 “The competent prosecutor must decide whether this threat contains a corpus delicti”, Bulgaria’s Prosecdutor General Ivan Geshev said.
