After failing to appear at Plovdiv District Court twice in a row and failing to provide documents for a valid reason for his absence, defendant Miroslav Krastev was forcibly taken to the courtroom today by a police officer, a Journalist. Plovdiv24.bg. However, the young man used another legal ploy and once again failed the injunction hearing scheduled for today.
An official defender was even summoned to the case, but Krastev said he wanted to be represented by another lawyer. When Judge Zornitsa Tukhchieva asked who he was, a strange answer followed. “I will be protected by the Markovski office, but I haven’t spoken to them yet.”
Krastev has already received two fines of BGN 500 for failing to appear in court. Due to his dishonest procedural behavior, he was warned that his pre-trial detention could be changed to “remand” if he did not appear at the next hearing, scheduled for December 20 at 10:00.
Miroslav Krastev is accused of deceiving a family on 11 November 2018, saying that he would build them a prefab wooden house, causing them property damage in the amount of BGN 33,100.
He posted a text on a specialized classifieds site that he is a builder with extensive experience in building prefabricated houses. Lui also attached photos of “his of his” finished projects and the pricing of the service stood out as significantly more lucrative than other similar listings. Miroslav Krastev arranged a meeting with the injured family and they negotiated the construction of the wooden house. In reality, however, the defendant had no experience in building such plants and his claims that he had completed the projects were not true.
