Aksesu Kitagawa Found Dead in Jita 4-4 Dockyards
Longtime labor organizer Aksesu Kitagawa’s remains were discovered early this morning under suspicious circumstances, according to 4-4’s teamster’s union. Verified by Home Guard investigators, the body of Aksesu Kitagawa was folded several times over and squeezed into a plastisteel cannister, later found by Jita 4-4 teamsters while unloading regular cargo deliveries slated to resupply the Caldari Navy garrison stationed there in the wake the massive security breach caused by the defection of Caldari scientist Esri Hakuzoku. Caldari Navy military police were the first on scene, taking initial custody of the body before deeming the cause of death suicide citing the discovery of severe gunshot trauma to the head. Injuries initially reported as consistent with gruesome “defensive wounds” by witnesses that discovered the body were found to be the result of a prolonged attempt to squeeze himself into the cannister at the angle required to fire the shot according to coroners’ reports. A lifelong citizen of Kaalakiota, Kitagawa’s cremated remains were recovered by the Home Guard to be delivered to his family. He is survived through his estranged wife and his three daughters in Landfall City.
Kitagawa’s passing acts as an extreme shock to those who knew him in life and leaves a noticeable vacancy in the community. To honor his passing, Kitagawa-haan’s friends and coworkers have announced the formalization of the Kirjuunen Ketsonet Nuijaa or Comrade’s Provisions Club. Acting as a spiritual successor to Aksesu’s Kitagawa Ketsonet Nuijaa, an unofficial radical workers club active on Jita 4-4 and Landfall City, the newly formed labor council has promised to take on the administrative network left unclaimed by his passing so they may continue to advocate for the material conditions of the Caldari worker.
