Former President of the National State Tax Service University Petro Melnyk, who was accused of bribery, is being reinstated in his position following a court decision, according to a source cited by UNIAN information agency.

Melnyk was detained on July 27, 2013 while receiving bribes from two citizens for ensuring the admission of their relatives to the National State Tax Service University. In August of the same year, Melnyk escaped from house arrest.

Melnyk was acquitted in court, but the Prosecutor General’s Office appealed against the verdict. Kyiv Oblast Court of Appeals overturned the acquittal, and the case was forwarded for a new trial. On November 25, 2015 the Prosecutor General’s Office completed its pre-trial investigation in a criminal case against Melnyk.
