After the Abkhazian deputies fired from a pistol and a machine gun on September 30 and October 1, the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Republic Dmitry Dbar (pictured) was temporarily removed from office for an independent investigation. Dbar asked for this on his own.

- In order for people not to think that I, as a minister, being in my post, can influence the investigation, I ask for the duration of the investigation to remove me from my post. I hope that the deputies who took part in this incident will do the same, - the website of the presidential administration quotes the words of the dismissed minister.

To date, Deputy Minister Ruslan Azhiba will act as the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In connection with the incident, the head of Abkhazia, Aslan Bzhania, interrupted his working visit to Moscow and returned to the republic.

According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, on the evening of September 30, on the embankment of Sukhumi, a deputy of the Abkhaz parliament, Garry Kokaya, fired five shots into the air; Third parties intervened in the conflict, including war veterans. They and Kokaya were injured. On October 1, another parliamentarian, Almaskhan Ardzinba, arrived in a service car to the building of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, swore obscenely, shouted and fired 20 shots into the air from a machine gun.
