Live broadcast of the meeting of the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC), which is currently assessing the legal grounds for the proposal of Justice Minister Nadezhda Yordanova for early dismissal of Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev, was disrupted. The SJC today considered the admissibility of the circumstances of Minister Yordanova's motion, but the meeting could only be broadcast in the Council building. 

The reason for the disruption was a hacker attack, according to the SJC Information Technology and Court Statistics Directorate. Access to the SJC website and that of the Justice Ministry has now been restored.
