Kalin Stoyanov: the Ministry of the Interior has nothing to do with the accusations of provocation against Dimitar Stoyanov, the law is for everyone

The BIRD website claims that the arrest of the journalist is related to an investigation into the former brother-in-law of the minister of power

Interior Minister Kalin Stoyanov commented on the BIRD site’s claims that the arrest of journalist Dimitar Stoyanov was related to an investigation into the former brother-in-law of the Minister of Energy, who posed as a tax official to extort a merchant. “I have a sister who has been divorced since 2009 with the person in question. For 15 years, neither I nor anyone in my family has been in contact with him. I do not know what he is doing and where he is. Let’s stop speculating on this topic. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has nothing to do with the accusations of provocation against Dimitar Stoyanov, the law is for everyone,” he said.

The arrests in “Customs” caused an absentee dispute between Kalin Stoyanov and Tencho Tenev (OVERVIEW)

Stoyanov explained that there is no information about criminal proceedings against him since the case in 2021, when he was charged, which was subsequently dropped. His comment is about information according to which a case was opened against him by “Internal Security” at the time when Stefan Bankov was chief.

The minister confirmed that an interactive map will be included again in the elections. “The system will provide information on submitted signals in real time,” he explained.
