The most polluted place in Bulgaria – with huge deposits of carcinogenic substances and air, water and soil that are hazardous to human health. This could be the future of the village of Varbovka near Pavlikeni in just a few years.
A company owned by Rumen Gaitanski – Vlka, a key player in the waste business, is working on the construction of the largest waste incinerator in Bulgaria. Because of it, the waste of all cities and villages in Bulgaria will be able to accumulate in one of the most fertile parts of the Danube Plain.
Despite the danger of serious pollution, which has sparked large-scale civil protests, the project has attracted inexplicable support from local and national authorities.
The case is currently being considered by the Supreme Administrative Court, which has already ruled in favor of Vulka.
Watch the whole story in the AKF film “The Wolf of Vurbovka.” How, with the support of the authorities, Rumen Gaitanski is getting closer to building the largest waste incinerator in Bulgaria.
