In the past days, an officer of the State Security Department, Ivan Pakhomov, who is also a security officer of the Prosecutor General's Office, died after passing physical training tests.
This was reported by sources in the Department of State Protection.
According to sources, the tests were conducted at a temperature of over 32 degrees.
The sources note that the death of the officer on the test intensified the dissatisfaction within the UDO with the heads of the Administration, which had previously led to the appearance of a letter from the UDO officers addressed to the president with criticism of the then acting Maksym Donets, head of UDO.
"After the publication of the letter, a new head of the UDO was appointed - Oleksiy Morozov. However, this is a man from Donets and he actually continues to manage the Office. After the death of the officer, the command was given to take "voluntary consent" from the employees to pass the tests. Since the beginning of the summer, more than ten employees have turned to doctors after exams in connection with the deterioration of their health. And in order not to pass exams, some employees of the UDO even go on sick leave," the source says.
