A new hearing will be held at the Sofia City Court in the case against former Prime Minister Kiril Petkov concerning the 2020 arrests of former Prime Minister Boyko Borisov. The court expects testimony from former Ministry of Interior chief secretary Petar Todorov and former head of the National Security Service, General Emil Tonev, who resigned from the position. During the previous session at the end of September, witness statements revealed that Petar Todorov, who is now a Member of Parliament for the Progressive Bulgaria party, was not aware of the arrests of Boyko Borisov, Sevdalin Arnaudova and Vladislav Goranov. Petar Todorov is a defendant in the case, charged with abuse of office and exceeding his authority while in office. The prosecutor’s office maintains that the arrests of Borisov, Goranov and Arnaudova, made four years ago, were unlawful. The court later declared those arrests illegal.
