Не хорошая новость не знаю что послужило этому но суицид плохое решение уйти из этой жизни...А почему юридическое сообщество не было шокировано тем когда другие граждане страны поджигали себя ??? среди них были и ветераны войны и простые граждане у которых были проблемы...Меня в этой стране уже ничего не удивляет и не шокирует если перечислить какие случаи были в нашей стране ужасных случаи их не мало...
