National Revenue Agency Director Rumen Spetsov announced that he has ordered inspections of the companies of Ivelin Mihaylov, co-founder of the Velichie party and creator of the Historical Park near Varna. "Proceedings have already been initiated on signals filed several months ago about the presence of financial schemes and fraud", Spetsov said. He added that these proceedings are underway but there are no results yet, BTA reported. The director of the National Revenue Agency explained that Mihaylov's companies have accumulated tax liabilities. Spetsov clarified that the signals submitted to the tax authorities against Mihaylov’s companies are not related to the past election campaign.

The Velichie party surprised in the early Parliamentary elections and the European Parliament elections held on June 9. It garnered 4.65% support and became one of the seven political formations that will enter the new Bulgarian Parliament.
