Muravey Georgiev Radev (Bulgarian: Муравей Георгиев Радев) (born 6 May 1947) is a Bulgarian politician who served as Minister of Finance in the Kostov government between 1997 and 2001.[1]

Life

[edit]

Born in Sofia, Radev completed his university studies in Varna, specializing in the economics of industry. In the 1990s, he became a member of the UDF. He has been elected to three National Parliaments.[2]

In 2004, he was one of the founders (alongside Ivan Kostov) of the DSB.[3]

Radev is married and has two children.[4]

Allegations of corruption and abuse of power

[edit]

In 2002, Bulgaria’s Prosecutor-General initiated investigations into several high-profile ministers, including former Finance Minister Muravey Radev, on suspicion of corruption or abuse of office. Justice Minister Anton Stankov on 27 June 2002, accused the Prosecutor-General Nikola Filchev of persecuting Radev for political ends. No subsequent developments — such as official charges, trials, convictions, or substantiated findings — followed, as the Prosecutor-General was changed.[5]
