A water cannon will guard the BFS congress. If necessary, the second one will also be included. This became clear at a briefing in the SDVR.
There it became clear that two absolutely identical signals for buying votes for the election of the president of the union had been found. An investigation has been carried out and so far the information has not been confirmed, but work on the case continues. This was announced by the head of the “Mass events” sector at the SDVR, Ivan Georgiev, at a briefing on security measures in connection with the upcoming BFS congress at the “Marinella” hotel in Sofia on Friday.
The police have information that football fans, including from the country, will gather around the building to express their opinion for or against the candidates for the head of the football headquarters. In this regard, SDVR takes measures to ensure order and road safety in the area. For those who wish to attend, there will be a designated place outside the hotel, from where they can watch the event – in the “St. Mina” garden around the “Exaltation of the Holy Cross” church.
Inspections will be carried out at screening points in three circles in the hotel area, as well as by mobile teams. According to Ivan Georgiev, the strictest measures will be applied to violators of public order, who carry prohibited items and may commit anti-social acts. He assured that the policemen will be uncompromising. Security in the Marinella Hotel building itself is a commitment of the BFS. For the purpose of hiring three companies.
Around 3:00 p.m. today, law enforcement officers began to take positions to secure the event’s territory. No street closures are planned for the time being. Sufficient police presence will be ensured and more will be called if necessary. One water cannon will be in place, and if necessary, the second one will be sent.
