He recruited reservists for the mobilization in Ukraine

They found him dead near his home in the Primorsky Krai of Russia. The death occurred under “mysterious circumstances,” the reports said. Murder? Suicide? doubts remain. All that is certain is that another Putin man is dead. This is the lieutenant colonel Roman Malik, 49 years old. The leader of the Tsar’s mobilization campaign in Ukraine.

WHO WAS MALYK

Some reports claim he was found hanged. The Russian police have launched a murder investigation but have not ruled out a suicide. A circumstance that friends and relatives of the military firmly reject. His “suspicious” death comes after a spate of attacks on mobilization offices across Russia: around 70 were hit by Molotov cocktails amid anger at the forced conscription mounting.

Married, father of two, Malyk was a veteran of the Russian war in Chechnya. He was responsible for the conscription in the district partisan and in the surrounding areas in the Primorsky Krai.

THE REGISTRATION CHAOS

In the past few weeks, in nearby Khabarovsk region, Yury Laiko, 41, also a conscript, was fired on allegations of “mistakes” in the “insane” recruitment of thousands of reservists in the region, half of whom were deemed “unsuitable for.” the service”.
