Dimitrov: I don’t know the name of the country involved in yesterday’s arrest


Following reports that a friendly country intervened by providing evidence over yesterday’s detention of two persons for the extortion of a Macedonian businessman, Foreign Minister Nikola Dimitrov said Tuesday he did not know the name of the country involved.

“All I know is that any unraveling helps us as society and how EU members see us. This is much healthier than putting things under the rug,” FM Dimitrov told a press conference.

Bojan Jovanovski-Boki 13 and businessman Zoran Milevski were detained late on Monday under the suspicion of extortion of a businessman. A public prosecutor is also involved in the case.
