A new witness might bring new evidence to the investigation of the brutal murder of the Belneyski Sisters, aged 15 and 18, whose bodies were discovered in January 2006 near the southern Bulgarian city of Pazardzhik.

A nursery school teacher named Kalina Yaneva allegedly saw the two sisters' bodies shortly after they were killed, according to various reports in the media in the city of Plovdiv as cited by Darik Radio.

Yaneva is said to have first seen how the two girls resisted when two men were trying to force them into a yard opposite of her house on January 28, 2006.

She is also said to have seen how two days the two men in question were trying to close the trunk of the car with the bodies of the Belneyski sisters wrapped in plastic bags inside it.

According to the reports, the local police in Pazardzhik are aware of Yaneva's testimonies, and she is ready to testify before the court. The information about Yaneva's testimonies in the Belneyski Sisters case still has not been confirmed officially, and it is not clear how it would impact the continuing investigation.

Only one man, the 30-year-old Lazar Kolev, has been arrested as a suspect for the sisters' murder.
