This was reported by <em>Capital<\/em> daily, citing the Central Depository.<\/p>\n<p>This actually means that Peevski has bought the shares from himself and Miroglio and <strong>someone is well on the way of gaining some 9 million levs from the resale and this now will be money with proven legal origin.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to the document, <a href=\"https:\/\/bivol.bg\/en\/bulgartabac-mafia-part-2.html\">published by Bivol <\/a>as early as <strong>August 12, 2015<\/strong>, TGI Middle East FZE has paid <strong>45,414,388 euro<\/strong> to the connected with former banker Tsvetan Vasilev company EFV under a contract for loan assignment.
