On the basis of a signal and a media publication, the Specialized Prosecutor's Office is checking whether former caretaker Minister of Economy Kiril Petkov has committed a crime. The documents published by the Constitutional Court- Kiril Petkov’s declaration (from May 10) that he was only a Bulgarian citizen and a certificate from Canada that on August 20 he was no longer a Canadian national, will become part of the documents in this case.
