Ex-Bulgaria PM Borissov released from detention

Bulgarian former Prime Minister Boyko Borissov was released from custody on Friday after prosecutors failed to come up with enough evidence to press charges against him.

Borissov, 62, was taken into custody along with former Finance Minister Vladislav Goranov, and Borissov's media adviser, Sevdalina Arnaudova, who also have been released.

"Brutal, nasty, they brought us back to communism. Last night we had dinner with the children – civilian and uniformed police officers entered. No charges – nothing", an emotional Borissov said immediately after his release.
