The SBU detained Kharchenko on August 26 as he involved an attorney into solicitation of a €170,000 bribe from a professor who wanted a position in the University.

The criminal proceeding is underway.

The Education Ministry dismissed Kharchenko from the National Aviation University.

He is now in hospital allegedly due to the high blood pressure.
