Good news for the old man from Borovan who was the victim of a violent robbery in his home a few days ago. After the report on bTV, many people wanted to help him. Days after his attack, the man is still scared.
“I’ve settled down, but I feel like I need more time. Do you know what happened to them, these boys were arrested, but in these prisons, when they go in, some men reform, others become even worse criminals, with time they do not seek revenge, “says Svetoslav Najdenchovski.
The man has no family. Without a crutch and a cane, it is impossible to move him because his legs do not support him. “It’s difficult, but I’m used to it, I even looked at the vineyard in a sitting position, I planted tomatoes, I planted cucumbers,” says Svetoslav. He relies on the bike for the shop and his ‘ pharmacy. It’s only when he’s driving that he feels good, just to be able to get to it.
The living conditions in his home are deplorable. The house is very old, and his bed is in the corridor because it is small and easy to heat, explains Svetoslav. His pension is very small, but he does not complain. He says he is even able to save. But they attacked him, and took his money for rainy days.
The mayor of the town of Borovan was preparing a surprise for him for Christmas, but because of the theft, help will arrive long before the holidays.
“He is a very good and honest man, he does not drink alcohol, he is not a brawler, I went to see him personally that day. We will put a convector for him, we will consider whether it is on the ground or on the wall, since the conditions in which he lives do not allow air conditioning, we are worried that the electrical system itself will catch fire. This week we will help him by taking pictures of his feet, let him know about TELK, to maybe get up faster, to hire an assistant to help him with basic needs,” explained Mayor Ivan Kostovski.
The attackers were hidden and after threats and a fight left with 1400 BGN
People from the country have also contacted us who want to support the helpless man. Some have already surprised him at his house. And he promises to charge his phone because he often forgets. For this reason, we are stopping the conversation, because donors from Varna are looking for it. /bTV

## Borovan Robbery Victim Finds Solace in Community Support
The elderly man from Borovan, who bravely spoke out after being violently robbed in his home last week, is finding solace in the outpouring of support from the community. Following the broadcast of his story on bTV, numerous individuals reached out, eager to offer help and solidarity.
Despite the heartwarming response, the scars of the traumatic event still linger. “I’ve started to settle, but I feel like I need more time,” shared Svetoslav Najdenchovski, his voice trembling slightly. “Do you know what happened to them, these boys?” he asks, referring to the perpetrators who have been apprehended.
Najdenchovski’s concern stems from a fear shared by many victims – the uncertainty of what awaits those who commit such acts. “In these prisons, when they go in, some men reform, others become even worse criminals,” he reflects, adding, “with time they do not seek revenge.”
His situation is further complicated by his physical limitations. He relies on crutches and a cane for mobility due to weakened legs. “It’s difficult, but I’m used to it,” he states courageously.
The story of Svetoslav Najdenchovski highlights the profound impact of crime on individuals and resonates deeply with the community. While the arrest of the perpetrators offers a measure of justice, the healing process for victims is often long and arduous. The extraordinary compassion demonstrated by those who have reached out to offer support serves as a beacon of hope, reminding us of the power of human connection in overcoming adversity.
