The Bulgarian national who kicked a German woman down the stairs of the Berlin subway will remain in custody. Svetoslav Stoykov was detained several days ago at the Berlin Central Bus Station, following a signal of a passenger who identified Staykov accidentally. The Bulgarian citizen will remain in custody until the end of the investigation process when he will hear his sentence. He will face at least two months in prison. The video of that brutal act was in the focus of the European media last week.
