The District Prosecutor’s Office-Dobrich detained for up to 72 hours K.D., 38 years old, brought to criminal responsibility for a robbery committed in the regional town, after the use of force. The prosecutor overseeing the case submitted to the court a request to determine the most severe measure of remand – custody, for the accused.

In the early hours of April 22, 2024, the accused, who had financial problems, went to the home of an elderly man, whom K.D. had information that he had money. The man disguised himself and entered the apartment undisturbed, thinking it was empty. To his surprise, he met the 74-year-old owner of the apartment there. An argument arose between the two, as the injured man tried to chase away the uninvited guest with a bat. K.D. however, managed to wrest the club he was holding from his hands and hit him on the head with it. After that, he quickly searched one of the rooms, where he found a bag and panting, took them and ran away. The total amount that the accused managed to take was BGN 850. With them, he topped up his account and lost the amount taken in an online casino.
After the incident was reported, an immediate investigation began. In the course of the work, the complicity of K.D. to the crime committed. He was arrested and charged with a crime under Art. 198, para. 1 of the NC. The injured man was hospitalized with a non-life-threatening concussion.

Work on the case continues under the guidance and supervision of the District Prosecutor’s Office in Dobrich. The decision of the court is expected to become clear today.
