Nake Georgiev no Longer Supreme Court Judge

Following his plea deal in the case concerning accepting a reward for unlawful influence, which has resulted in him being given a three-year prison sentence, Nake Georgiev’s term as Supreme Court Judge was ended by the Judicial Council on Friday.

“Though Georgiev claimed he was innocent, it has been proven that nobody, not even a judge, can defy facts and proof,” Council President Vesna Dameva said.

Judge Antoaneta Dimova stated that she was not satisfied with the sentence.

“I consider that stricter sentences must be given to judges,” she stated.
