The High Council of Justice dismissed a judge of the Poltava Court of Appeal for committing a significant disciplinary offense. This is reported by UNN citing NABU.
Details
The disciplinary complaint was based on evidence obtained during the pre-trial investigation in criminal proceedings. The National Anti-Corruption Bureau and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office found that the judge tried to influence her colleague to make the "necessary" decision regarding a third party.
In March 2025, the Disciplinary Chamber of the High Council of Justice took into account the arguments of the investigation and brought the judge to disciplinary action, namely, the dismissal of the judge from office.
Recall
Earlier, UNN reported that the court heard the amazing arguments of the lawyer in the case of bribery charges against People's Deputy Serhiy Kuzminykh. The defense believes that the People's Deputy became a victim of NABU provocations.
