In the Irgiz district of the Aktobe region, a local military commissar was found dead in his office. According to preliminary data, he took his own life by suicide.

As reported by Ratel.kz, the circumstances and causes of the incident have not yet been disclosed. It is noted that the deceased was an exemplary employee with no bad habits.

Journalists write that one possible reason for the suicide could have been family problems.

As it became known, only in November there were two tragic incidents involving military personnel in the Aktobe region. While going on duty at the Bogoslovka training ground, a private from military unit 30238 killed himself by shooting himself in the face with a rifle.

Shortly before that, a corporal from another unit tried to take his own life in a rented flat but was saved thanks to the intervention of a friend. The corporal was found with a suicide note.

Recall that in September, against the backdrop of increasingly frequent tragic incidents in the army, Kazakh citizens created a petition calling for the abolition of compulsory military service. The authors believe that the abolition of conscription in Kazakhstan is becoming relevant due to the numerous deaths of military personnel in peacetime.
