Peevski graduated from 119 SOU in Sofia in 1998 and completed his legal studies at the South-West University in 2003.
Member of Parliament from the parliamentary group of the DPS in the 41st and 42nd National Assembly. Official owner of such is only Krasteva, who is also co-owner of the largest printing company in Bulgaria - IPK "Rodina". Peevski succulent competing publications and as the owner of a number of newspaper distribution companies.
In 2001, Peevski joined the National Movement Simeon II (NMSII).
In June 2013, Peevski was elected President of the State Agency "National Security", with the votes of 116 MPs. Under the pressure of the protests against the Oresharski cabinet that followed, Parliament unanimously revised this decision later the same month.
The case became widely known in the entire European Union. After a couple of months lack of clarity whether under these conditions Peevski is still Member of Parliament or not, eventually in December 2013 the Constitutional Court decided that he still is.
In May 2014, Peevski was elected to the European Parliament on the MRF ticket, garnering 11 183 votes, but immediately thereafter decided to give up his seat, explaining that his motivation to participate in the European elections had been to restore his reputation.
In mid June 2014, three people were arrested due to their involvement in an alleged murder plot against Peevski, but were eventually released because of a lack of sufficient evidence.
He has been a member of DPS since 2009.
