The other is the prosecutor from the SWP &#8211;   <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Konstantin Sulev.

This brought him an accusation of malfeasance in connection with the investigation against the Euro. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the witnesses introduces himself as a former co-owner of a security company. He claims that in the period 2015-2019 his company carried out site security of the halls of the elevator factory at Iskar Station, managed by Yavor Zlatanov. According to him, first Iliya Zlatanov tried to invade the territory of the plant at Iskar Station, but was not allowed by private guards, and then Yavor Zlatanov broke into his father&#8217;s factory in Dupnitsa and was arrested. In 2019, Iliya Zlatanov contacted him and wished his company to take over the security of the plant at Iskar Station.     <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In his testimony, the man is not sure whether Zlatanov&#8217;s father was the owner or tenant of the site, but he had a legal basis to rent it. After taking over the security of the factory again, Zlatanov introduced him to Petyo Petrov, who is more popular as Pepi the Euro, in the restaurant &#8220;The Eight Dwarfs&#8221;. There the witness also met Lyubena Pavlova, who was then still the wife of Pepi the Euro and bore his surname. Two months later, the witness accidentally passed by to drink coffee in the restaurant and there he met Petyo Petrov again, who invited him to talk. During this conversation, Petrov asked for round-the-clock security for his restaurant and such was provided to him. The contract was signed with the tenant of the restaurant &#8211; Lyubena&#8217;s mother. According to the contract, two people per shift guarded the restaurant 24\/7, and the witness regularly visited the restaurant to monitor the situation closely.      <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sarafov was the most regular in &#8220;The Eight Dwarfs&#8221;.

He instructed the magistrates, and they were silent and nodded. There were times when they brought documents to the Euro that he was familiar with.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The witness denies that he has detected Ivan Geshev as a visitor in the restaurant. He emphasizes that   <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.svobodnaevropa.bg\/a\/32437067.html\">Kristian Hristov<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was the most trusted among the employees of the <\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Petyo Petrov.
