After the incident in Borovets, when she was involved in a car accident with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level of 1.5, Kalina Saxe-Coburg-Gotha has been summoned to the Interior Ministry Regional Directorate – Sofia for a second time.
Kalina, daughter of Simeon Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, has received notification, via an authorized lawyer, to report to the police where charges will be brought against her for causing an accident while under the influence. To this moment, neither she nor her lawyer have reported to the Interior Ministry Regional Directorate – Sofia with the motive that her lawyer was abroad. If Kalina Saxe-Coburg-Gotha fails to report to the police without providing a valid reason, she risks a compulsory bringing-in. At yesterday’s memorial service on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the death of Tsar Boris III at Rila Monastery, Simeon Saxe-Coburg-Gotha made his first comment on the incident while Kalina Saxe-Coburg-Gotha kept her silence.
