Meanwhile the political stability of the country was destroyed.  A group of traitors that were thirsty for power were trying to overthrow the government. The cop d’état was to be prevented in time or else the country would have faced serious problems. The group completely ignored the warning of the government and started military operation against our statehood on the 15^th of March, 1995. The battalion where Emin was serving was also sent to the zone where the operation against cop d’état was taking place. The armed conflict had already begun when the soldiers of the National Army arrived.

Unfortunately the bullets did not pass him by either and the barve soldier closed his eyes forever.

He was single.
