Former MP and media mogul Delyan Peevski was affiliated with 3 offshore companies, but these companies were not mentioned in his annual property declarations, data of the international investigation “Pandora Papers” and Bird.bg show.

Peevski was a member of Bulgaria’s Parliament while he was affiliated with the offshore companies. However, he did not enter information about these companies in his property declarations, contends Bird.bg.

According to the National Assembly’s rules and procedures, MPs are not allowed to participate at administrative or control bodies of trading companies. The name of the other Bulgarian national has not been disclosed yet. The Pandora Papers investigation accused more than 300 politicians from over 90 countries in tax evasion.

Businessman and former MRF MP Delyan Peevski has described the information as false. In a written position to the media, he stated that he had always duly and in accordance with the law declared all his property to the competent authorities.
