A final court ruling has confirmed the confiscation of EUR 116,000 (BGN 227,000) in unlawfully acquired assets, as reported by the Commission for Illegal Asset Forfeiture (CIAF) on Friday. The forfeiture is connected to a criminal case involving the possession of high-risk narcotic substances in particularly large quantities with intent to distribute. The final judgment was issued by the Supreme Court of Cassation on April 17.
The legal proceedings originated from a notification by the Blagoevgrad Regional Prosecutor’s Office concerning pretrial proceedings against an individual identified as K.N., known by the nickname “Eypala.” These proceedings addressed the alleged offense related to the possession and intended distribution of controlled narcotics. The initial ruling from the regional court was subsequently upheld through two subsequent appeals instances. As a result of the legal process, the court ordered the confiscation of multiple items belonging to the person under investigation.
These seized assets include two apartments located in Sandanski, a motor vehicle, monetary funds, the equivalent value of a sold motor vehicle, three additional cars, and various sums deposited in bank accounts. The confirmed forfeiture value totals EUR 116,000.
