Vadim Boiko's wife says in an open letter to Vladimir Putin that her husband resorted to a “self-execution” because he was fed up with mobilization efforts and the ensuing fallout.

, tasked with working with troops recently called up under Putin’s “partial mobilization order” for the war against Ukraine, was found dead with multiple gunshot wounds after showing up for work at the Makarov Pacific Higher Naval School in Vladivostok earlier this month.

He wanted “to signal to you that there is a disaster happening, that something must be done, that the motherland is in danger,” she wrote, according to a copy of the letter shared in its entirety by local media outletAfter being given impossible tasks and then threatened with criminal prosecution for being unable to fulfill them, she says, her husband became the fall guy for military leadership.

After being tasked with preparing equipment and new draftees for the war effort, she wrote, Boiko “ran into big problems,” the first among them being that the equipment he was tasked with preparing was “unfit” for military service. The shoddy equipment resulted in complaints from draftees, and despite Boiko “screaming” about the problems to his direct supervisor, nothing was done and the supervisor instead took time off work and “dumped all” responsibility on Boiko, she wrote.

It was after Boiko was threatened by superiors with criminal liability for the faulty military equipment that he took his own life, she said.
