Citizens have filed a complaint with the Sofia City Prosecutor's Office and the Interior Ministry against the blockade of major intersections by protesters in Sofia. The complaint has been supported by a subscription, said one of the petitioners, Veselin Georgiev. 

Georgiev explained in interview for BNT that they were filing a complaint against the abuse of Sofia residents. 
"We are citizens who do not agree that other citizens should go out and block major intersections on our behalf. We have not authorized them to speak and commit these acts of hooliganism on our behalf. We are also citizens of this country and we have rights. We want to exercise our right to free movement", the complaint reads.
