Interior Ministry Chief Secretary, chief commissioner Petar Todorov and deputy Chief Secretary Stanimir Stanev have resigned, Petar Todorov has announced. The reason is the latest incident in which a police officer was injured during the attempted apprehension of illegal migrants.
Petar Todorov stated that every day the police have to stop the migratory wave “with their bodies and their lives”, and it is high time there were legislative decisions to protect them. Chief Commissioner Todorov pointed out that the law is liberal towards human trafficking, with only 175 convictions out of the 4,000 preliminary investigations launched in the past two years.
