What is declared is an acquisition of an apartment with an area of 156 square meters and a terrace of 48 square meters. The notary deed is, however, for <strong>an apartment on three levels with two large terraces<\/strong> &#8211; 186 square meters and 48 square meters. <strong>The large terrace of 186 square meters is simply missing in the <a href=\"https:\/\/register.caciaf.bg\/2018\/E6D427BD-E85D-470A-A460-9BDB9AF5A7B691612.xml\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">declaration<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the deal had been concluded at a price well below the tax assessment. In principle, this is not illegal if local taxes and tax assessment fees are paid.<\/p>\n<p>According to the notary deed, Plamen Georgiev&#8217;s purchase is well below the tax assessment of the property<br \/>\nThe apartment of Plamen Georgiev is a three-level unit in a new building on 21 \u201cProf. Georgi Pavlov\u201d street. The first level has an area of 106.76 square meters and a terrace of 47.99 square meters. The second level has an area of 16.08 square meters and a terrace with an area of 186.57 square meters, duly described in the notary deed. The third level has an area of 33.08 square meters. The tax assessment of the property is BGN 452,786. The description of Plamen Georgiev&#8217;s three-level apartment in the Cadaster includes both terraces.<\/p>\n<p>For such an exclusive home, the price cannot be less than EUR 1,500 per square meter for the apartment and EUR 500 per square meter for the terraces or at least BGN 700,000 (EUR 350,000), which makes an average of EUR 900 per square meter.<\/p>\n<p>Plamen Georgiev, however, has declared in the notary deed a price of EUR 150,000 or an average of EUR 384 per square meter. As a source of income, he has indicated a bank loan from First Investment Bank (FIB or Fibank) and the sale of another home. The seller is not a company, but a private person who owns a construction company.<br \/>\nWhether the low price in the notary act is to disguise the fact that Georgiev cannot prove the income needed to pay the full price of the luxury apartment or is a preferential one as a gesture from the seller to a powerful person should be clarified by the very same Committee headed by Georgiev \u2013 KPKONPI. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Systematic declaration of properties below tax assessment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bivol revealed earlier that apartments and garages purchased by Plamen Georgiev and his wife in 2012 and 2017 are listed in the tax declarations at significantly lower prices than the prices they were purchased for and entered in the Property Register.<\/p>\n<p>The discrepancies become noticeable by comparing the data declared before the Property Register with the data in the Georgiev\u2019s family declarations submitted in <a href=\"https:\/\/register.caciaf.bg\/2013\/E6D427BD-E85D-470A-A460-9BDB9AF5A7B656426.xml\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">2013<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/register.caciaf.bg\/2015\/E6D427BD-E85D-470A-A460-9BDB9AF5A7B668082.xml\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">2015<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/register.caciaf.bg\/2018\/E6D427BD-E85D-470A-A460-9BDB9AF5A7B691612.xml\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">2017<\/a>, which are posted on the official site of the KPKONPI.<\/p>\n<p>The explanation of this mystery turns out to be simple. In the Property Register, the tax assessments of the properties are entered, as this is a legal obligation and lower prices are entered in the notary deed that correspond to the income of the declarant. Moreover, this is done systematically.<\/p>\n<p>As early as 2012, Plamen Georgiev Dimitrov declared an apartment with two parking spaces in the \u201cGeo Milev\u201d district in Sofia for BGN 207,318, but according to the Property Register, BGN 264,310 had been paid. The difference is BGN 56,992.<\/p>\n<p>Two years later, Georgiev acquired a garage and declared it for BGN 6,845. However, the price entered in the Property Register is BGN 17,157.7. The difference is BGN 10,312.<\/p>\n<p>Together with the three-level unit, Plamen Georgiev paid for his properties <strong>BGN 249,292.5 below their tax assessment.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the cases with the cheap apartments of people in power until now, the properties prices have been declared at the level of their tax assessment or over it, but not at the market price level.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, the site Frog News calculated, based on Plamen Georgiev&#8217;s public tax declarations, that the declared apartments prices are below the market ones. It turns out, however, that Georgiev&#8217;s problem is different. It is now clear that the KPKONPI Head has set a new record in \u201cApartmentGate\u201d with a tax declaration below the tax assessment, not to mention the market price.<\/p>\n<p>The absence of the 186-square-meter terrace in Georgiev&#8217;s declaration is also shocking. Terraces are not just a decorative detail and should be declared when they have been entered in the notary deed.<\/p>\n<p>If this terrace omission is done intentionally, it can be considered document fraud.<\/p>\n<p>Plamen Georgiev was the personal nomination of another \u201cApartmentGate\u201d protagonist &#8211; Tsvetan Tsvetanov, Deputy Chairman of Citizens for European Development of Bulgaria (GERB), Head of the GERB Parliamentary Group and former Interior Minister \u2013 to lead the new anti-corruption commission, with Prime Minister and GERB leader, Boyko Borisov, supporting this nomination. As a prosecutor, Georgiev became known for squashing the investigation into leaked recordings, known as the &#8220;Hello, Vanyo&#8221; in which Borisov is heard ordering the then Head of the Customs Agency, the late Vanyo Tanov to stop a Customs inspection at a brewery in Northern Bulgaria.<\/p>\n<p>Plamen Georgiev\u2019s name is often mentioned as a likely successor of Chief Prosecutor Sotir Tsatsarov at the post. Tsatsarov, himself, before taking office, was also exposed by Bivol in declaring properties at 1\/1,000 of their real cost.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The mandatory tax declaration for 2017 of the Chairman of the Committee for Combatting Corruption and the withdrawal of illegally acquired property (KPKONPI) (sic) Plamen Georgiev contains false data.
