The Bulgarian Union of Medical Assistants and Paramedics expressed its categorical disagreement with another case of aggression against a medical specialist. The reason for this was the attack on the paramedic Lyubomir Davidkov in the Emergency Medical Aid Branch in Berkovitsa.

On August 4, while on duty, Davidkov was attacked by an intoxicated patient. The man was aggressive towards the medic while he was being treated in an emergency. The professional organization emphasizes that this is not an isolated case and that violence against medical professionals is a serious problem. More than 1300 paramedics work in the emergency centers in Bulgaria.

Thanks to the investigation, on August 6, the assailant, with the initials M.S., was found and detained. By order of the Montana Public Prosecutor's Office, he was detained for 72 hours.
