Bulgaria's Prosecution created a separate sub-division made up of five prosecutors dealing with major trials.

The office would take over 25 major trials and would have to 'achieve significant results' in three months, Darik Radio said.

Among the major trials were the one of the Toplofikatsia's head Valentin Dimitrov accused of money laundering, the trials of four crime bosses and two trials for EU fund malfeasance.

The new Prosecution office will keep close contact with institutions such as Financial Intelligence Agency, Bulgarian National Bank, customs office and police divisions.

If the manner in which the office operated turned out to be successful, the Prosecution would use the same strategy for high-level trials involving organised crime, corruption, money laundering and economic fraud, Darik said.
