The head of the National Bureau for Control of Special Intelligence Means, Boyko Rashkov, has confirmed that were cases of unauthorized use of special intelligence means against politicians, magistrates and journalists.

According to information from the investigation, the request for the measure was due to relations of Gatev with an judge whose phone was tapped and who was rapporteur in a case against businessman and leader of the Volya party Veselin Mareshki.
