Two more candidates passed re-testing for deputy head of SAPO

Results of the re-test on knowledge

The competition committee responsible for the selection for the position of deputy head of the Specialised Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAPO) published the results of the re-test on knowledge of current legislation. This procedure was designated for three candidates who were unable to complete their first attempt due to technical malfunctions and power outages.

Who continues the fight

Two candidates demonstrated a sufficient level of preparation and received the opportunity to proceed to the next stage of the selection:

• Andriy Parshutin — scored 87 points;
• Viktor Novozhilov — scored 80 points.

Oleksandr Tymbalyuk failed to overcome the established threshold, scoring only 67 points, while the minimum required result was 80 points. Thus, he dropped out of the competition.

Review of appeals and further steps

During the meeting, the committee also reviewed appeals filed regarding the results of the first testing, which took place on 3 November. Oleksandr Bozhko withdrew his appeal. Viktor Novozhilov's appeal statement was rejected as having lost its relevance, since he successfully passed the re-examination.

Currently, 21 candidates remain in the competition for the aforementioned position. Their next step will be testing on cognitive abilities.
