Fani Belneyska, mother of the murdered Belneyski sisters is filing an official complaint with the Bulgarian TV channel bTV over their reality show "Psychics."

The second season of the show, in which 10 individuals with alleged psychic abilities compete to unriddle unsolved mysteries, included an episode dedicated to unraveling the girls' murder and footage of the investigation.

The mother is indignant over the fact that the producers had not warned her about airing the episode.

"I think bTV violated all morals and ethics. They did not warn me or look for me afterwards to find out how I feel, how my family feels after the show," Fani Belneyska said, adding she fell into a shock and her psychological state greatly declined after seeing the episode.

Belneyska, however, confirmed that the psychics had precise and truthful information about the case.

Sisters Rositsa (18) and Kristina (15) Belneyska went missing in January 2006, after leaving a disco bar in the town of Pazardzhik. The sisters were found dead at the beginning of February near the town of Peshtera.

The case remains unsolved. Three years after the murder, among raging forensic controversy and the unexplained death of Bulgaria's most renowned coroner, the 29-year-old prisoner from Pazardzhik, Lazar Kolev, became the prime suspect in the case.

His lawyer, Martin Markovski, claims the DNA analysis proved nothing, and authorities do not have any evidence against his client.
