Former Executive Director of Irrigation Systems EAD Charged with Malfeasance in Office

Sofia, April 3 (BTA) - The Prosecuting Magistracy charged former executive director of Irrigation Systems EAD Dimiter Ivanov with inflicting 2,986,355 leva detriment on the state-owned company resulting from the conclusion of four disadvantageous contracts for legal services between November 2013 and November 2014, and embezzling 6,056 leva in the form of a mobile handset and two laptop computers. Ivanov was put on a recognizance not to leave.

On March 31 the Prosecuting Magistracy pressed charges against Irrigation Systems EAD executive directors Ivailo Purvanov and Staiko Ganchev with inflicting 963,000 leva detriment on the company. The damage resulted from 79 contracts for legal, accounting and advertising services signed by Purvanov between December 2014 and June 2016 and a consulting service contract endorsed by Ganchev in February 2012. Again, these contracts were unnecessary because Irrigation Systems has its own law experts and accountants.
