Bulgarian Socialist Party Leader Sergey Stanishev has alerted to irregularities in the Sofia Municipality contract for the Metro construction between ‘Obelya’ and ‘Nadezhda’.

Stanishev confirmed that BSP would not be sending a signal to the Prosecutor’s Office because the competent authorities would have to take action at their own initiative.

"There is a quite obvious tolerance for companies who have no experience in building a subway. Even the preliminary stage of the tender did everything possible for the companies who have experience in the construction of a metro to be removed from the process.” Stanishev said.

He added that the winning bid of BGN 53 M was accepted in front of bids for BGN 50 M from more experienced construction companies.

Executive Director of Metropolitan Ltd, Stoyan Bratoev, replied by saying that Stanishev’s comments were "absolutely tendentious."
