was on duty and received Makarov's service pistol.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, he had an important "zoom" planned: the deputy chief of police of the Main Directorate of the Internal Affairs of the Perevaliv region held a conference call, in which he took the participation of Bratchikov," the public writes. 

After the meeting, the colonel went into his office, closed the door and fell silent.

the colonel's corpse: the man had shot himself with a service pistol.

According to the report, the reasons for Bratchikov's suicide are currently unknown.

It is noted that in 2019 he underwent psychological testing, experts did not find any risk factors.

Just a few weeks before the event, Bratchikov

filed for divorce from his second wife.

Their marriage was to be officially dissolved on March 27.
