Protesters gathered in front of the detention center in Busmantsi to demand more rights for asylum seekers in refugee centers. The protest was organized by the informal coalition "Solidarity with Migrants – Bulgaria", which calls for an end to police violence, easier access to healthcare and the removal of restrictions on visits to the detention center.
"A new order was recently issued, trying to leave people without phones that have no cameras and GPS, as is generally required. However, people need these phones to stay in touch with their lawyers and with their families", said Georgi Spasov who is one of the participants in today’s protest. Additionally, some people need medical supplies, medicines and special food. "We demand their release, their treatment as human beings and the respect of their rights", the protesters said.
