Court trial on Burgas assault still in deadlock

Photo: Gallery

Once again the Specialized Criminal Court failed to proceed substantively to the case on the blast at the Sarafovo Airport in Burgas in June 2012, when 5 Israeli tourists and their Bulgarian driver were killed. The postponing was once again due to problems with the summoning procedures of the victims and heirs of the perished. The next attempt for the start of the initial trial for terrorism in modern Bulgaria will take place on June 19. Defendants in absence as accomplices and supporters of the actual doer are Meliad Farah, holding Australian and Lebanese citizenship and Hasan El Hadj Hasan, a Canadian and Lebanese citizen.
