At a press briefing, when asked about the case in which the bodies of 18 migrants were found in a truck near the village of Lokorsko, President Rumen Radev pointed out that in other countries the perpetrators of similar crimes receive tens of years in prison. In Bulgaria, Radev pointed out, after their capture by the authorities of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, according to an agreement with the prosecutor's office, they receive several months of imprisonment, which is an invitation to commit the same crimes again.
According to the Bulgarian head of state, this case clearly shows that the judicial authorities in Bulgaria must approach this type of crime in a radically different way.
