Bulgaria's head of state expects authorities to open all "Pandora's boxes"

I expect the Bulgarian services and law enforcement agencies to work so that no "Pandora's boxes" remain undisclosed in Bulgaria, said Bulgaria's president Rumen Radev on the occasion of the data released by the international journalistic investigation Pandora Papers. In Blagoevgrad, where he is on a visit, Radev declined to say if he knew who the second Bulgarian politician revealed by the investigation was.

The information coming out of the Pandora Papers is hardly complete. Thus, the Minister of Justice Yanaki Stoilov commented on the investigation, which also accused two Bulgarian politicians of being related to offshore companies. 
"Delyan Peevski was supposed to have declared his offshore companies. If the revenue agency and the anti-mafia commission start inspections, more things will probably come out," Stoilov said.
