Bulgaria’s Minister of Regional Development and Public Works, Ivan Shishkov, has publicly accused businessman Hristo Kovachki of conducting illegal construction on the Malovitsa mountain. Shishkov informed journalists that building activities are ongoing despite a prohibition order. Kovachki, who has business interests in the energy sector, allegedly proceeded with construction regardless of the restrictions. The location, Malovitsa, is a protected area, raising concerns about environmental impact and adherence to building regulations. Minister Shishkov did not detail the nature of the construction or potential consequences. Further investigation is expected to determine the extent of the illegal building and any potential legal action. The announcement signals a potential conflict between the government and a prominent business figure.
