We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria Co-chairman Hristo Ivanov commented in parliament on the dismissal of the Deputy Chairman of the State Agency for National Security, Petar Petrov (PP-DB). According to him, ''anyone who is not trusted by Movement for Rights and Freedoms Co-chairman Delyan Peevski is being removed''.

Petrov was dismissed from his post on the proposal of Plamen Tonchev, head of the State Agency for National Security, which conducted a large-scale operation at the National Customs Agency last week.

''The dismissed deputy chairman of SANS has an absolutely perfect professional history’’, said PP-DB Co-chairman Kiril Petkov. He noted that at the same time, the other deputy chairman of SANS who ''worked at the Commission for Combating Corruption and Confiscation of Illegally Acquired Property (KPKONPI) on a very special case - the investigation of data from the U.S. government on the "Magnitsky" topic concerning Mr. Delyan Peevski was left at work."
