– Simo Kasabov cried in the Plovdiv court
– What jealousy? Her husband personally paid for her silicone breasts and she goes clubbing with her friends, close family members said
– My mother is lying, said the daughter of the beaten Dimitria
“We had a wonderful family for 20 years. It was everything to me. Everything was normal: laughter and love. And suddenly I come home on the 14th and see my wife on a video chat with another man doing different things. This goes on for months and a daughter saw it for me”.
Businessman Simo Kasabov tearfully uttered these words before the Plovdiv District Court.
He is accused of hitting his wife Dimitria with a tennis racket on December 14, who managed to escape and asked a friend for help. She was hospitalized with multiple injuries and has now had her spleen removed.
Kasabov broke down in tears as he spoke his last words before the magistrates ruled on his pre-trial detention. He admitted inserting tracking devices into the phones of his wife and two children, but it was done so that each knew where the others were.
Earlier, people close to the family told ’24 Chasa’ that things are unclear.
“Dimitria is dating three friends, two of whom are divorced and one of whom is single. The four go clubbing together, which belies claims that Simo Kasabov was very jealous. He personally let her have silicone breasts and paid for it. the operation,” Kasabovi’s friends explained. They specified that the rupture of Dimitria’s eardrum was not of now and had not been caused by her husband, but involuntarily by her son, who was holding a pencil of hers and unknowingly, while she was writing, struck his mother in the ear of she.
“Furthermore, the doctor in question, to whom the prosecution alleges that Dimitria came to see him with injuries 4 years ago, denied it,” relatives of the family said.
In court, Kasabov looked broken.
“I just want a lighter measure. To see my children and run the business. It’s all over. A good family is no longer good,” he declared before being ushered out of the hall. Kasabov’s family originates from the Rhodope village of Zmeitsa, but years ago they moved to Plovdiv, where he developed a business with raspberries, mushrooms and herbs.
Simo Kasabov’s defense lawyer, Georgi Siderov, has requested the recusal of the judicial panel considering the appeal against the arrest of the entrepreneur, after the magistrates Elena Zakhova, Ivan Minchev and Stanislava Bozeva did not accept his request to file a he tries. He and his colleague Zhivko Kolev insisted that a psychological examination of Simo Kasabov’s 13-year-old daughter Ivaila be accepted, as well as a request to the district prosecutor’s office to question the girl.
“First of all, this expert opinion does not have the character of an expert opinion within the meaning of the code of criminal procedure. Furthermore, it cannot have the character of written evidence. The circumvention of the procedural order by means of other pseudo-evidence is inadmissible”, reasoned the Judge Zakhova for her refusal decision. Lawyer Siderov accused her and her colleagues of being biased.
“Using your rhetoric – if, in your opinion, our psychological experience is pseudo-evidence, then the medical epicrisis for Dimitria Kasabova’s wounds should be too,” added the businessman’s other defender, Zdravko Kolev.
After the deliberation, the panel of judges decided to leave the recusal request without respect.
“There is evidence that Simo Kasabov committed the crime he is accused of: interrogation of witnesses and the victim and physical evidence. There is also forensic documentation showing that his spleen was removed. There is also data on other physical injuries , as it is clearly a ruptured eardrum, eye problems and more,” said prosecutor Svetlozar Cheradzhiyski. He specified that any measure other than “detention” would not achieve his goals. “Where he will go home, to his wife”, the prosecutor rejected the hypothesis of house arrest.
“Although you did not accept our experience, I take the liberty of saying that the daughter describes a completely different situation and frankly says:“ My mother is lying, ”said one of Kasabov’s lawyers – Zdravko Kolev.
In the end, the court ordered the most severe measure of custody for Simo Kasabov.
