The prosecutor's office has indicted Lyubomir Yakov, who threatened to kill Parliament Speaker Iva Miteva, and demanded his permanent arrest. On Monday, the court will decide on his remand in custody. 

The 26-year-old man is a criminal - he is registered for other threats and thefts. Last year he received a suspended sentence for threatening to blow up a bus station in Plovdiv. He also carried out another criminal scheme by stealing fake internet accounts and demanding money.
