After the death of Boris on August 28 1943 , Kyril was appointed head of a Regency council by the Bulgarian Parliament , to act as Head Of State until the late Tsar's son, Simeon II Of Bulgaria became 18. In 1945 a Soviet -backed Military Coup assumed power in Bulgaria, which instituted war crimes trials against the regency council. Prince Kyril was found guilty of collaboration with Nazi Germany and was sentenced to death. According to some accounts, he was made to dig his own grave before being shot through the back of the head. |
