The emergence and transformation of power structures
“We will do everything possible with our colleagues in the Ministry of the Interior not to return what we call” mutren times. ” So said the chief prosecutor Ivan Geshev in Dupnitsa. He went there to supervise the search for Yanek Milanov.
Police officers with sniffer dogs, located in a long chain and searched 120 square kilometers to Dupnitsa.
Dupnitsa has long been called the “city of the Galevi brothers” due to the omnipotence that Plamen Galev and Angel Hristov had there.
They were sentenced to 7 and 5 years in prison, respectively, for leading an organized crime group, but after the verdict they managed to leave the country and have been hiding abroad for 7 years.
It is known that Yanek Milanov, who has been missing since July 31, was last seen getting into the car of Vasil Kaplanov – Kaplata, a former guard of the Galevi brothers. And fear returns to the mutts of the city.
what were they
the mutinous times
at the beginning of
The 90s?
The character who appeared in Bulgaria then, months after the fall of the Todor Zhivkov regime, and who is now called “mutra” by everyone, was initially known as the “fighters”.
One could recognize them from afar by their distinctive features and style.

wrapped in chains,

and a conserved measure of his attacks were baseball bats.
The mythical origins of power groups began in the first months of 1990, when hundreds of athletes, mainly from power sports, seriously cared for during socialism, remained in the streets. Most of the heads of law enforcement in Bulgaria grew up in the school of future wrestling champions at the boarding school “Olympic Hopes”.
All famous underground heroes pass from there: Brothers Vasil and Georgi Ilievi (assassinated in 1995 and 2005), Krassimir Marinov-Golemiya Margin, Mladen Mihalev-Majo, Dimitar Djamov, Ivo Karamanski (assassinated in 1998) and Dean Iliya Pavlov ( shot in 2003).

In the late 1980s, some of them successfully combined sports with Magura currency scams.
After the changes in 1989, the security forces seized control of the Kalotina to Kapitan Andreevo highway in the Peony and Iztok motel areas, committing money fraud, robbery of Turkish guest workers and controlled prostitutes. The street confrontations begin.
Power brigades have been formed, the main ones being fighters, boxers and karate fighters.
The Yugoslav embargo imposed in May 1992 it encourages criminal activities with the participation of “combatants”.
They and former berets are smuggling fuel into Serbia. They guard the tank caravans and finally begin to change the scheme across the border on their own. The security forces quickly established links with the already powerful Serbian mafia. Belgrade and Pozharevac dictate the supply of petroleum products and products subject to excise duties.

They are for the control of prostitutes in the hotels of the capital “Slavia” and “Rodina” and on the Black Sea coast.
In 1992, Czechoslovakia, still undivided, returned to Bulgaria a brigade of 22 Bulgarian car thieves led by former rower Ivo Karamanski. Vasil Iliev, the Great Margin, Dmitry Minev-Rusnaka (assassinated in 2005), Karamanski, Djamov and Majo, who later became irreconcilable enemies, were still on one side of the barricade.
The former athletes’ first company is Fortuna-R OOD, registered with the Sofia City Court in 1993. Its owners are Karamanski and Margina.
Little by little, they began to build a system of security companies through which

Those who refuse are brutally punished with beatings or destruction of property.
Vasil Iliev’s VIS becomes the leading group, crushing everything well.
The “Gangster War” broke out in late 1993. due to the division of territories.
He is considered the first victim of a shooting Stefan Miroslavov-Krushata, executed on September 4, 1993. He is a classic-style wrestler, with national and international competition titles.
Miroslavov passes by the sports boarding school “Olympic Hopes”. There he became friends with the future bosses, who later formed the famous “Fighting Brigade” and became part of them.
In 1988 Lieutenant Stefan Miroslavov, already a CSKA athlete, was sentenced to two years in prison by the Military Court for beating him. He spent eight months in Kazichene. He was pardoned in 1990 by then-President Petar Mladenov. Along with his colleagues from the carpet, he began to storm the road around the Bozhura Motel and Iztok. At that time, the fighters controlled the robberies of motels, prostitutes and money fraud.
On September 4, 1993, he drove his cherry-colored Mercedes Convertible 560 SEL to Sofia. Four shots from a Simonov sniper rifle hit him on the Lovech-Troyan highway.
In the next 20 years, there will be dozens of contract killings.
Two months later, on November 16, about 50 people with 12 cars entered the courtyard of Descrim sports complex in Sofia. The fighters beat up several members of the Zashtita security organization and kidnapped Slavi Binev (a taekwondo fighter and future MEP) and former rowing fighter Borislav Tsvetkov.
After the attack, Dimitar Djamov, Dmitry Minev-Rusnaka, Golemiya Margin and Pelo Pelov were found wanted and the charge was armed robbery.
Vasil Iliev and VIS-1 remain neutral. Ivo Karamanski sided with Slavi Binev and the shootings began.
There was a beating at the Maria Luisa Summer Baths, and on December 31, 1993, the brutal tumult between fighters and karateka at the Poor-Rich Casino was considered the beginning of the war between the groups.
11 days later, as a baptism of fire for the fighters, there was a shooting in the Druzhba district of the capital.

Police believe Djamov, Margina, Rusnaka and Vasil Magurkata were involved in the machine gun shooting.
Hours later, in retaliation, there was a shooting in the very center of Sofia. From a moving jeep open fire in the Sevastopol casino (to the intersection of Rakovski and Graf Ignatiev streets), where the Karamanski base is. Mladen Mihalev was injured in the shooting.
Karamanski was later arrested for extortion. The night after her arrest, she became infamous shooting in the Belite Brezi district.
A team of special commandos, Lieutenant Colonel Marin Chanev, Chief Sergeant Georgi Georgiev-Indian and Hristo Bilev, guarded a meeting of senior police officers with Ivo Karamanski’s right-hand man, former police officer Ivan Ivanov.
The commandos were sent as guards in civilian clothes and weapons.
At the signal of children for armed persons, a team of special police officers from the riot control unit was sent to the block. This led to the largest internal massacre in the Interior Ministry, in which the police shot the Chanev and Indian berets and seriously wounded Bilev.
The rostrum
structures
VIS and SIC it became commonplace for the time in Bulgaria until the late 90s.
The Interior Ministry refused to grant a VIS-1 license to Vasil Iliev, and thus the VIS-2 insurance company was born, which is rapidly gaining momentum in auto insurance.
The dissolved brigade of combatants gave rise to several new insurance companies. The PEC was established by the group around Mladen Mihalev and Margina and became a major competitor to the VIS-2. Ivo Karamanski created Korona Ins and Dimitar Djamov created Zora Ins. In 1995, the former berets also founded the Apollo and Balkan insurance company.
At the end of 1994, Mihalev, Rumen Nikolov-Pashata and Ventseslav Stefanov registered the company Interpetroleum and Partners. They then included Krassimir Marinov-Margina, Dmitry Minev-Rusnaka, Milcho Bonev-Bai Mile (assassinated in 2004) and Stoil Slavov (flown on January 19, 2004).
Energy insurers are beginning to enter other sectors of the underground and legal economy. In the meantime

victims fall
of this process
The shootings of Vasil Iliev on the way to his restaurant Mirage in 1995 and of Ivo Karamanski in 1998 are the most memorable executions of the 1990s.
In March 1995 (shortly after Jean Videnov’s red government came to power), the BSP Duma organ published an article by Iliya Pavlov (actually written by Georgi Kadiev) “It is time to stop organized crime” with a message “It’s time for the lizard to cut off its tail”. It is perceived as a political signal that power structures must shed their clandestine past and enter legitimate business, legalizing criminally accumulated profits. In the end, this happens, but not without blood and new victims.
In the first years of the new millennium, the battle in the underworld is still bloody. Between 2001 and 2006, the legendary leaders Poli Pantev (assassinated on the island of Aruba in early 2001), Iliya Pavlov (shot in March 2003), Filip Naidenov-Fatik (in 2005), Konstantin Dimitrov were shot dead. Samokovets, Milcho Bonev-Bai Mile, Dmitry Minev-Dimata Rusnaka, Georgi Iliev, Ivan Todorov-Doctor, Stoil Slavov and more than 100 lieutenants at various levels in the main conflict camps.
