Peevski Hires Hamid as Lawyer, Files Complaint Against Interior Minister Demerdzhiev

Delyan Peevski, the influential leader of Bulgaria's DPS party, has taken legal action against Interior Minister Ivan Demerdzhiev. Peevski has appointed fellow party member Hamid Hamid, also a Member of Parliament, to represent him in this matter. The DPS party's press service announced that a formal complaint has been lodged with the prosecutor's office.

While the announcement confirms the legal move and the parties involved, the specific grounds for the complaint against Minister Demerdzhiev were not immediately disclosed. The DPS party's statement indicated that the signal (complaint) was submitted, but further details regarding the allegations or the context of the dispute remain private at this time.

This development marks a significant political maneuver, highlighting tensions between the DPS party and the current government. The involvement of a high-profile figure like Peevski, along with the appointment of a parliamentary colleague as legal counsel, suggests the matter is considered serious by the DPS.
