Bulgaria's Minister of Justice Nadezhda Yordanova has submitted to the Supreme Judicial Council a proposal for the release of the Chief Prosecutor Ivan Geshev from his post. She points to nine new circumstances, including police violence during anti-government protests; the series of the Anti-Corruption Fund on the "Eight Dwarves" case for taking over businesses through the participation of law-enforcement agencies; the signal from the former partner in "Zhosi" Ltd. Georgi Georgiev for the theft of the company and the arson of his home; the attempted assassination by poisoning of the arms dealer Emilian Gebrev. 

According to Nadezhda Yordanova, her request can be considered simultaneously with last year's proposal by former Justice Minister Yanaki Stoilov.
