These were found to be buried as the murderer could not flush them down the toilet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Following the discovery of the remains, a bartender, Vesco Valchinov has been named as the prime suspect in connection to the murder of Peev. Christian Peev was known to be highly recognized in top events and parties, where he met the bartender.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to sources, Vesco Valchinov and Christian Peev met at a bar about 5-6 years ago, and Peev being a formidable and knowledgeable crypto enthusiast introduced Valchinov to the world of cryptocurrency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Valchinov became the prime suspect in Peev\u2019s demise as surveillance footage showed that both Valchinov and Peev were seen entering Valchinov\u2019s residence on August 8, but Valchinov was the only one seen leaving his residence the following day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Forensics show that Valchinov allegedly killed Peev with a dumbbell in his residence.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">However, Valchinov was not the only one involved in the demise of Christian Peev.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<pre style=\"text-align: center\">Total market cap sitting at $1.121 trillion | Source: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/Tradingview.com\">Crypto Total Market Cap on Tradingview.com<\/a><\/pre>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Konstantin Subotinov who was believed to be an accomplice to Valchinov was also arrested by authorities and later confessed that he helped Valchinov in disposing of the remains of Peev\u2019s body by driving some of the parts to Vitosha to bury them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Valchinov apparently knew the authorities were onto him and he tried to lose his tail by fleeing to a hotel in Vitosha. But unfortunately for him, authorities tracked his phone and he was apprehended the following day.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Could The Murder Be Money Related?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Although the authorities and investigators believe that the murder of Christian Peev is money related, as Peev had amassed a considerable fortune from his crypto investments, jealousy has also been seen as a potential motivation for the murder of Peev.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Investigators speculate that Valchinov might have been jealous of his friend Peev and the fortune he has built for himself. However, the investigation is still ongoing, and more details will be unveiled, as authorities tend to crack the case and figure out what led to this tragedy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Peev\u2019s death marks the second crypto investor found murdered and dismembered in less than a month.
