After an action by the Central Balkan National Park Directorate and the Ministry of Interior, coercive actions have been taken against the violator

The Central Balkan National Park Directorate and the Ministry of Interior found in the Dzhendema reserve scattered remains of dead farm animals and an illegally placed van with a surveillance camera and a feeder for wild animals.

An administrative violation act was imposed for the discovered facility in the protected area, a penal decree was issued, which was confirmed by judicial review. Remains of dead farm animals - cattle, buffaloes, goats, without the relevant identification marks - were scattered near the van. Such actions are a serious violation of environmental and veterinary legislation.

Meanwhile, an order has been issued to impose a compulsory administrative measure to remove the van from the territory of the reserve. The person T. D., who placed the van in this location, was invited to remove the vehicle within the specified period for voluntary compliance, but this did not happen. As a result, by order of the director of the National Park Central Balkan Georgi Krastev, compulsory actions were undertaken to remove the van, of which T. D. was notified. He is among the main instigators of the protest actions of livestock breeders and citizens from the region. The animal remains are also to be removed with the assistance of employees of the Bulgarian Food Safety Agency.

The actions on site, led by the Director of the park Georgi Krastev, involved five employees from the “Control and Security – North” and “Control and Security – South” departments of the park directorate, and representatives of the Ministry of Interior.
