Интервюто на бившего главен секретар на Министерството на вътрешните работи Георги Кандев, публикувано във Facebook, в което той обяви напускането си, предизвика голямо внимание. В поста си Кандев написа, че не иска да носи отговорност за решения, които не взема, и не иска да бъде фасада. Това изявление се случи на 7 юни, а на следващия ден, 8 юни, вътрешният министър Иван Демерджиев разкри, че Кандев му казал, че иска да работи в частния сектор, за да си плати ипотеката. Според Демерджиев разговорът се проведе в рамките на няколко минути, без да се посочи никаква конкретна причина за напускането. Главният секретар просто му донесъл папка с заявление за напускане, а след това и постъпил в социалните мрежи.
Демерджиев изрази подозрение, че Кандев е решил да се включи в политически процес, като участвал в маратон в Пловдив заедно с Андрей Гюров, кандидат за президент на изборите на есента. Той посочи, че това е знак за политическа карьера, а не просто лични причини. Въпреки това, и Демерджиев, и премиерът Румен Радев изразиха, че са били изненадени от решението на Кандев, който не е споделил никакви проблеми в работата си. Радев подчерта, че причините за напускането са изцяло лични.
Сред хоризонталните спекулации за причината за напускането на Кандев се включват и скандалът с незаконното строителство във Варна и изчезването на украинския предприемач Олег Невзоров, който напусна България. Демерджиев отрече такава връзка, но други източници предложиха алтернативни версии. Така, например, депутатът от партията „Продължаваме Промяната“ Велислав Величков предположи, че причината за напускането е отказът на Кандев да се разследва т.нар. група на „Калашниците“, свързана с тежката катастрофа на „Челопешко шосе“. В инцидента загинаха четирима души, а двамата обвиняеми се твърди, че са били част от групата. След изявлението на Величков МВР арестува 52 души по подозрение, че са съпричастни към бандата. Към момента в ареста остават само шестима мъже.
Катастрофата на „Челопешко шосе“ се случи, когато кола се заби в автобус на градския транспорт. Подозренията са, че е имало гонка, при която два автомобила са се движили с над 140 километра в час. Бяха задържани двама души – Васил Филипов и Траян Филипов. Първият е в болница със счупен гръбнак, а вторият – в следствения арест. За Васил се разбра, че е бил настанен в общинско жилище в „Кремиковци“ след като е декларирал, че е социално слаб. В социалните мрежи той демонстрира с пачки пари и скъпи коли. Семейството му купува апартамент в близък блок, а районната община се опитва да ги изгони от общинското жилище. Заповедта обаче е отменена от съда.
Подозренията, че двамата са част от бандата на „Калашниците“, са заради разследване отпреди няколко месеца, при което соченият за лидер на бандата Пешо Калашника е арестуван в „Студентски град“ заради обвинения за склоняване към проституция. Васил и Траян са разпитвани като свидетели по това дело. Според Величков Пешо Калашника отдавна е освободен от ареста. Той твърди, че това е причината за оставката на Кандев и че той е обяснил решението си като проявка на принципи. Няма какво друго да е освен тежката катастрофа и бандата на „Калашниците“, която излезе на светло. Засега нито от МВР, нито от прокуратурата са давали информация за делото, по което бил задържан Пешо Калашника. По разследването на катастрофата предстои гледане на мярка за неотклонение на втора инстанция. По време на заседанието пред първата инстанция съдът се произнесе, че няма категорични доказателства за гонка.
