The police and the Prosecutor's Office are working on seventeen reports of violations of the electoral legislation, caretaker minister of the interior Kalin Stoyanov announced, less than a month before the elections for National Assembly and European Parliament. According to him, some of the signals are related to vote-buying.

"Physical evidence was found and seized - lists of persons who could possibly vote for one or another political party,"  the minister said.

"Absolutely every signal that is received, should be processed as quickly as possible and even faster and immediately reported to the prosecutor's office so that further decisions can be made together," Kalin Stoyanov said.
