Chumak to Become Chief Military Prosecutor, Replacing Matios
Zelensky has approved his appointment.
Today, September 10, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky officially approved the appointment of People's Deputy Viktor Chumak as head of the military prosecutor's office.
Chumak will replace Anatoliy Matios, who has held this post since 2014.
A photocopy of the document signed by Zelensky shows: "The candidacy of Viktor Vasylovych Chumak for appointment to the post of Deputy Prosecutor General – Chief Military Prosecutor has been approved."
The new leadership plans to reformat the military prosecutor's office while eliminating its dual subordination to the Prosecutor General's Office of Ukraine and the Ministry of Defence.
Former People's Deputy from Petro Poroshenko's Bloc Viktor Chumak, who is seeking the post of deputy prosecutor general under Ruslan Riaboshapka, previously threatened journalist Vsevolod Filimonenko with prison.
