30 million euros of the money for lot 5 of the Hemus Motorway were diverted, the General Directorate Combating Organized Crime revealed. This happens after two days ago an operation in Sofia and other cities in the country, related to the construction of the Hemus highway was held. The money was transferred to hollow companies and then withdrawn in cash. Most of these fictitious companies were registered in the name of low-income people, and some of them were criminals.
A total of 45 million euros had been allocated in advance for the construction of Lot 5, and so far there have been no actual construction activities there. The investigation revealed that several crimes had been committed in the case. The General Directorate Combating Organized Crime has received information that people who are involved in these crimes wanted to destroy documents. This necessitated a large-scale operation. A total of 17 addresses have been searched so far and 20 people have been questioned. The investigation continues.
