The board of Transparency International (TI) Ukraine at a meeting on April 29 unanimously elected former Ukrainian deputy prosecutor general Vitaliy Kasko the fifth member of the board for the term of tenure of the effective board – until late October 2016, TI Ukraine has reported.

“The key reason why Kasko was supported as nominee was his professional qualities and a huge experience in investigations against [former disgraced Ukrainian president] Viktor Yanukovych and his corruption crimes,” TI Ukraine Board Chairman Andriy Marusov said.

He expressed confidence that Kasko’s appointment will significantly help TI Ukraine in achieving its strategic goals.
