The duties of the head of the Lutsk city police department are from today being performed by thirty-three-year-old police captain Ihor Mukovoz. Today, at the weekly operational meeting in the Lutsk city hall, he was introduced in the role of acting head by Lutsk city mayor Anton Kryvytskyi. \n \nIhor Mukovoz is an experienced police officer. The Lutsk city department has been his place of work since 1999. During this time he worked in the criminal investigation department and was an investigator. During the Orange Revolution he spoke out against his leadership, which was forcing law enforcement officers to hand in absentee ballots. At that same time, together with Lieutenant Colonel Vyacheslav Chaika, he became a member of the regional branch of the Committee of National Salvation. According to Mr. Mukovoz, while heading the department he will strive to do everything possible to make the work of the police more transparent, and for mutual understanding to appear in relations between police officers and people. I would like to note that Ihor Mukovoz is a Volyn resident, a native of Berestechko, married, and has two children. Having become the acting head of the Lutsk city police department, he replaced in this position Oleh Yakovets, who had previously performed the duties of head of the city department, and Mykola Hataniuk, who heads this law enforcement structure. Incidentally, both of them at one time came to Lutsk from Rivne region. \n
