Shymkent, October 14, 2009 (Khabar) - According to a Presidential Decree, 13 frontier guards, who had been participating in a special-forces raid on the Southern frontier of the country, have been awarded with medals. 10 of the guards received their medals posthumously. The awards ceremony in Shymkent started with the laying of a stone in Abai Park. In the future, it is planned to lay a memorial to all frontier guards, who were killed on duty. The chairman of the National Security Committee Amangeldy Shabdarbayev extended his sympathy to the families of those who were killed. The award ceremony happened in front of the Glory Obelisk.
