On March 13, a senior official passed away in Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan. This incident was widely covered by the media and caused an uproar in society.
It became known that the deceased was Kubanichbek Kapalov, who served as Deputy Head of the Bailiffs Service within the Prosecutor General's Office system.

The rapid response and investigation team immediately arrived at the scene. Their initial inspection revealed that a man who had taken his own life using a firearm was found inside the cabin of a GAC-branded car.
Subsequent analyses and investigations officially identified the deceased as Kubanichbek Kapalov. During the work conducted by investigators, several pieces of evidence were found inside the vehicle.
Among them, an Izh-18 12-gauge shotgun, cartridges and wads used from it, as well as two mobile phones were identified. The most tragic circumstance is that a farewell letter written before his suicide was also found next to the deceased.
