  • Bulgaria 2016 International Religious Freedom Report
    BULGARIA 2016 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution provides for freedom of religion and conscience. The law requires religious groups to register to be eligible for certain benefits, including the right to receive state funding, operate schools and hospitals, and receive property tax exemptions. The constitution recognizes Eastern Orthodox Christianity as the country’s “traditional” religion, and the law exempts the Bulgarian Orthodox Church from the registration requirement. In September the National Assembly passed a law restricting the wearing of face-covering garments in public places. In July the Supreme Cassation Court vacated the guilty verdict of one Muslim leader charged with spreading Salafi Islam and hatred of other religious groups. In February the Pazardjik District Court started a trial against 14 Roma Muslims for propagating antidemocratic ideology and incitement to war and aiding foreign fighters. Minority religious groups, including Jehovah’s Witnesses, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons), and Muslims reported incidents of harassment and hostile rhetoric by members of some political parties and said the government failed to prosecute religiously motivated attacks against their members. Schools banned the wearing of religious symbols, including the hijab and cross, and some local governments continued to deny requests to construct new mosques or repair old ones. The Supreme Cassation Court suspended the Muslim community’s restitution claims, pending review of whether it was the rightful successor to confiscated properties. Minority groups reported discrimination and prejudice from local authorities in certain municipalities. Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses reported physical assaults and harassment against members of their communities.
