Sofia police have found that drug dealers are increasingly recruiting students who sell drugs inside the schools and there are almost no dealers around the buildings.

The most widely sold drugs in Sofia schools are amphetamines and marijuana. Often these drugs are offered under other names in order to attract interest. This was what Inspector Petyo Petkov of the Interior Ministry has told reporter of the program "Horizon" of the Bulgarian National Radio Nikolay Hristov.

According to Petkov, heroin is almost never used by young people in Sofia.
