Georgi Valev from “The Killers” appeared in court with a cigar and a Che Guevara shirt

The sentenced to life imprisonment, Georgi Valev, part of the criminal group that became known as the “Killers”, was escorted by employees of the Main Directorate “Security” to the Administrative Court of Sofia region to appear in court, BTA reported.

From there, the General Directorate of Security (GDO) of the Ministry of Justice was contacted for comment because of a photo taken by a photojournalist of the agency, which shows Valev with handcuffs, a hat, sunglasses and a cigar in his mouth. From there, they sent a position, in which it was said that Valev had numerous lawsuits filed against individuals, government officials and various institutions. It is in this connection that his escort today was with an increasingly strict escort, which is related to the nature of the punishment imposed on him.

The GDO states that tobacco products and glasses appear in the list of permitted items and objects that prisoners have the right to possess and keep in their possession.

“The cigar in the person’s mouth clearly shows the demonstrative search for provocation and the search for public attention that characterizes the behavior of the prisoner,” the main directorate said.

From there, they also add that attention has been paid to the employees of the GDO for a stricter and stricter performance of their official duties in similar situations in which an obvious provocation is sought.

The entire position of the General Directorate “Security”:

The person in the photo is the incarcerated Georgi Valev, who is serving a “life imprisonment” sentence. Today he was escorted by employees of the Main Directorate “Security” to the Administrative Court of Sofia region for presentation at a court hearing. Valev has filed numerous lawsuits against individuals, government officials and various institutions. It is in this connection that his convoy today is with an increasingly strict convoy, which is related to the nature of the punishment imposed on him.

Regarding the issues of tobacco products and glasses, they appear in the list of permitted items and objects that prisoners are allowed to possess and keep in their possession. The cigar in the mouth of the person clearly shows the demonstrative search for provocation and the search for public attention that characterizes the behavior of the prisoner. And apparently the effect in the current situation has been achieved.

Attention has been paid to the employees of the GDO for stricter and stricter performance of their official duties in similar situations in which a clear provocation is sought.
