The daughter of Simeon of Saxe-Coburg-Gothа - Kalina, who was involved in a car accident with her car on Saturday afternoon after drinking alcohol, was detained and later released due to "no need to detain her". 

Kalina was driving her car when she hit the barrier of a hotel in the mountain resort of Borovets. The car she was traveling in was surrendered voluntarily. The sample with a drager was found to have more than 1.2 percent of alcohol in her blood.
