      The well-known Zassenhaus conjecture for the integral group ring of a finite group is studied, namely, that a torsion normalized unit is conjugate to some group element in the rational group algebra. This problem is still open, and few non-solvable groups are known to satisfy the conjecture. Recent papers, for instance by \textit{V. Bovdi, A. Konovalov}, [Lond. Math. Soc. Lect. Note Ser. 339, 237-245 (2007; Zbl 1120.16025)], and \textit{V. A. Bovdi, A. B. Konovalov, S. Siciliano}, [Rend. Circ. Mat. Palermo (2) 56, No. 1, 125-136 (2007; Zbl 1125.16020)], and the present paper use the method due to \textit{I. S. Luthar, I. B. S. Passi}, [Proc. Indian Acad. Sci., Math. Sci. 99, No. 1, 1-5 (1989; Zbl 0678.16008)], for verification of the conjecture for particular simple groups. In this paper the author establishes the conjecture for the alternating group of degree 6.
