GERB on the allegations of telephone tapping: Without evidence, this is a gross manipulation

The allegations of telephone tapping without any evidence are a gross manipulation. We refuse to comment on pre-election mudslinging.

This was stated in the position of GERB (the former ruling party) in connection with the allegations of telephone tapping of politicians.

"For us, this is speculation aimed at a scandal that would divert public attention from the sole arbitrariness of President Radev and his caretaker government," the party said.

GERB calls on Atanas Atanasov, as the original source of the allegations, to immediately present evidence for his words. They also demand immediate inspections by all competent institutions and public disclosure of their results.
