In front of supporters in Kirkovo, GERB leader Boyko Borissov has accused the government of participating in a corruption scheme. He cited a statement by Rumen Ovcharov, a former energy minister in the BSP cabinet, saying that last night Bulgargaz's new management board sold 60,000 megawatt-hours of natural gas in just 3 seconds to Romania. 

"We will prove that they stole millions," the former prime minister threatened. 
According to him, this is a prepared sale to certain companies, and the amount is equal to half the daily consumption of the whole of Bulgaria.
