New chief prosecutor will be consulted about Sakvarelidze's reinstatement
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko will talk with the new prosecutor general about the return of recently dismissed Deputy Prosecutor General and Odesa Region Prosecutor Davit Sakvarelidze and his team. Sakvarelidze made the announcement in an interview with the Novoye Vremia weekly.
"The president has said he will talk with the new prosecutor general, and he will discuss our reinstatement," he said.
As was reported earlier, Sakvarelidze was dismissed in the morning of March 29 in connection with disciplinary liability. His position was scrapped.
Later on that day, the parliament voted to dismiss Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin. Some 289 MPs voted in favor of the measure. .
