The mechanism for investigating the Prosecutor General was also approved at second reading in the Parliament's Legal Committee. For the "big three" in the judiciary, however, a common election and removal procedure is envisaged.

"It looks like a trade – we will accept the mechanism for control and accountability of the Prosecutor General, but we will subordinate the court. There are no "three big ones." It should be clear – the court is higher than the prosecutor," lawyer Adela Kachaunova from the Bulgarian Helsinki Committee told the Bulgarian National Radio.

She urged "not to dress in every procedure procedure the presidents of the supreme courts with the Prosecutor General, because they are not the same thing".

There are dependencies and they will not be eradicated, even if this mechanism was adopted in the original form, Kachaunova believes. In her words, this is the subject of more serious and thorough work that will take years.

We may have a mechanism for investigation, accountability and control, but whether it would be effective is highly questionable, said Adela Kachaunova in the show "Before All". In her words, electing a chairman of the Supreme Court of Cassation and the Supreme Administrative Court predominantly from prosecutors, there is no need to be mistaken – it will be a convenient choice.

There is no way GERB to seriously convince people that they are working for judicial reform, she said. "Even if constitutional changes are started, there is no need to be optimistic about what will come out of them."

Most likely, the Constitutional Court will not see unconstitutionality in the changes concerning the status of the Prosecutor General, the lawyer suggested.

It is possible that 14 votes will be enough for the removal of the Prosecutor General, but this would be a bitter victory, Adela Kachaunova stressed. "But who will be next? I am not optimistic that he will be a true professional who wants to work independently and impartially to solve crimes."

The SJC is mired in procedures instead of actually doing something, says lawyer Kachaunova. She added that the SJC should act in a more operational way.

IvanStoimenov Geshev was born on December 19, 1970. In data, Kachaunova said: "It's not clear who holds the stronger cards at the moment after all. This recording, which we have heard, hints at very serious dependencies – something that observers of the system have known for a long time, but this is already acknowledged by the Attorney General himself, and apparently without awareness of irregularity."

She expressed the opinion that Yordan Stoev in his role as a "messenger, messenger" could say who sent him to Geshev.
