Officials from several ministries, as well as the prosecutor’s office, are calling an emergency meeting at the Interior Ministry today to discuss the circumstances surrounding last night’s severe road accident near Svoge, in which 16 were killed and 18 injured.
An investigation is underway into why the bus, owned by a private transport company and transporting old-age pensioners on an excursion, flipped over after hitting several vehicles in heavy rain.
