A Bulgarian judge, Vladislava Tsarigradska, has publicly called for a comprehensive investigation into the use of surveillance measures against judges and prosecutors. Speaking on Nova Television, Tsarigradska demanded a review of all instances where special intelligence operations were deployed against members of the judiciary. She suggested that such surveillance has been widespread but yielded no significant results. The call for investigation stems from concerns about potential overreach and the impact on judicial independence. Tsarigradska’s statement implies a systemic issue regarding the monitoring of magistrates. This request seeks transparency and accountability regarding the application of surveillance powers within the legal system. The judge did not elaborate on specific cases but emphasized the need for a thorough examination of past practices.
