A wave of outrage is sweeping over Bulgaria after a severe accident on the Telish-Radomirtsi road (Pleven region), in which 12-year old Siyana lost her life as she was returning from a holiday with her grandparents. A protest is scheduled for today in Blagoevrgad. Protests took place yesterday in Varna, Sofia and other towns. The protesters are demanding more severe penalties for traffic offenders and more systemic control, especially for speeding.
