On 7 April, the Directorate for Combating Organised Crime dismantled a migrant smuggling network. Three people were arrested - the organiser and two of his associates.
The organiser is a third-country national who has been denied refugee status in Bulgaria and is living in the capital without a registered address. He recruited the illegal migrants and then redirected them to his accomplices - Bulgarian nationals who organised and supervised their illegal transport across the country to the Serbian border.
