OCCRP is aware of a serious and credible threat directed against the safety of investigative journalist Atanas Tchobanov of our partners BIRD.BG and BIVOL.BG. The authorities have been informed and are taking this threat seriously.
OCCRP’s policy is to aggressively investigate all threats and attacks against its partners and we will act to address this latest threat against Tchobanov.
Any attack on an OCCRP member will result in a significant investment of investigative resources with the goal of bringing any perpetrators to swift justice and to complete the work of any affected journalist.
OCCRP is not alone. Many organizations are committed to making sure no attack against journalists goes unpunished – some examples include the cases of Daphne Caruana-Galizia, Jan Kuciak and Pavel Sheremet. We will replace each fallen reporter with 20.
