The case with the explosion that went off near the car of Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev has nothing to do with the National Assembly's obligation to adopt an effective mechanism to investigate the chief prosecutor, caretaker Minister of Justice Krum Zarkov said from the parliamentary rostrum during his hearing in the National Assembly

"The Council of Ministers has tabled to the Parliament a bill that has been developed by the Ministry of Justice, synchronised with European practices and sufficiently well discussed”, Minister Zarkov said and expressed hope that the National Assembly will adopt the bill. 

“I hope that we will have the results very soon”, Krum Zarkov said in connection with the alleged assassination attempt on the country’s Prosecutor General.
