The Sofia City Prosecutor's Office and the State Agency for National Security have launched investigation over a report that the "Shipka" Union was committing crimes against the Republic of Bulgaria.
The association defines itself as "a Bulgarian patriotic organization that unites soldiers, officers, sergeants, sailors, midshipmen and employees of the Ministry of the Interior and all citizens who have taken an oath".

According to the website of Military Union - Bulgarian People's Militia "Shipka", some of their goals include "counteraction, prosecution, neutralization and punishment of any form of treason on the part of the country's top state, military and political leadership".
