The "Justice for All" initiative has announced that it is organising a protest this evening at Independence Square in central Sofia under the slogan "Constitutional Court under siege! In defence of law and democracy".

The reason for the protest is the election of the new members of the Constitutional Court from the parliamentary quota, which, according to the initiative, was conducted in a "non-transparent, non-public and unjustified" manner.

"With the election, the new constitutional judges were given unprecedented (full) nine-year mandates, with which the parliamentary majority violated a decision of the Constitutional Court itself of 9 January this year (namely to reduce its mandate by two years because the election of the two new members was delayed). Atanasova and Belazelkov are due to be sworn in as constitutional judges on Friday.
