Sofia: Protesters occupied the entrances of the main court house in Bulgaria’s capital Sofia on Wednesday, seeking to bar the country’s chief prosecutor from his office over allegations he has failed to investigate widespread corruption.

The latest protest against Ivan Geshev comes a month ahead of snap elections on July 11 after previous polls in April returned a fragmented parliament with long-time prime minister Boyko Borisov failing to secure a fresh mandate.
