The “businessman” whom the Bulgarian police authorities allegedly
rescued from an assassination attempt is to be questioned on Wednesday,
Bulgarian Interior Minister Tsvetan Tsvetanov has announced.
Tsvetanov told the bTV channel that he cannot disclose the name of the
alleged assassination target due to the upcoming questioning. However,
he revealed that he has been “registered for numerous frauds” and was
“beaten up years ago.”
On Tuesday, a Montenegrin and three Armenians was arrested by Bulgarian
police authorities for the planned murder of a man described as a
“businessman” in the capital Sofia. A gun and the assassination
target’s picture were discovered during the police operation.
It was the Montenegro citizen who ordered the murder, Bulgarian police
believe. In 2004 he was arrested in Bulgaria for the possession of
54 kilograms (118.8 lbs) of cannabis, while in 2005 he was detained
with 4 kilograms of heroin.
The Montenegrin was banned from entering Bulgaria in 2006.
