“Regarding the allegations of corruption practices in Delhi, we believe that if Mr. Nalbantov has credible information of instances of corruption at Bulgarian consular missions, he should duly refer the matter to the competent structures in the country,” the Foreign Ministry says, and adds that no reports regarding such practices by consular staff have been submitted to the ministry
