The Witness Protection Bureau in Bulgaria goes under the management of the Ministry of Justice, lawmakers decided in the last working day of the 46th National Assembly.
The transfer of powers over the Bureau from the Prosecutor's Office to the Ministry of Justice provoked sharp remarks in the plenary hall. Hamid Hamid of the MRF proposed changing the name of the bill to "Law on revealing some protected witnesses". Filip Stanev, speaking on behalf of the authors of the draft from "There is Such a People" party, accused opponents of the change of "trying to preserve this strange Bureau" and "this strange chief prosecutor". Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev himself commented that the change would increase the risks faced by protected witnesses and magistrates.
