“I immediately started the car and went to the appropriate place that was indicated to me. They crossed from one side of the ravine to the other. We made a civil arrest. We took them to the town hall and called the Border Police. As far as I understand, they are Syrians who want to go through Bulgaria to Italy,” explained the mayor.
