Judicial Administration Head Kholodniuk Resigned

The head of the State Judicial Administration (SJA) Zynovii Kholodniuk wrote a letter of resignation on his own free will.

The press service of the SJA announced this to Ukrainian News Agency.

"He wrote a letter of resignation on his own free will," the authority said.

In the coming days, the High Council of Public Justice is to consider the application.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, Kholodniuk's defense appealed against his suspension.

Earlier, the High Anti-Corruption Court refused to elect Kholodniuk a measure of restraint in the form of a bail of UAH 1 million and chose him a personal guarantee.

Kholodniuk is suspected of committing a crime under Part 1 of Article 255, Part 1 of Article 369-2, Article 351-2 of the Criminal Code
