Ideju o specijaliziranom sudu predložio je ministar unutrašnjih poslova Tsvetan Tsvetanov krajem aprila, nakon niza policijskih operacija protiv grupa organiziranog kriminala, u kojima je uhapšeno na desetine osumnjičenih.
The specialised court idea was proposed by Interior Minister Tsvetan Tsvetanov in late April, following a series of police operations against organised crime groups, in which dozens of suspects were arrested.
