President Victor Yushchenko wrote a letter to Supreme Justice Council and to Judges Council with the request to make their statement and apply proper measures in their authority in the situation with the judge of Lviv appellate administrative court I. Zvarych.
“Community was shocked by media headlines about facts that were uncovered in the work of Lviv appellate administrative court judge I. Zvarych, who also chairs the court”, - said Victor Yushchenko.
Although agreeing with the fact that all circumstances of the case may be determined only through proper investigation, President expressed opinion that absence of the appropriate reaction from the body that is responsible for forming judges corps leads to loss of confidence of people in state authorities and their ability to fight corruption.
Therefore President addressed Supreme Justice Council and Judges Council with the request to initiate disciplinary proceeding against the judge to determine whether he kept up to the oath and to consider his dismissal from the office.
