Later that year Ravil Magonov, the chairman of Lukoil, an oil giant, died after falling out of the window of a Moscow hospital.
I had to follow up on this part since they didn’t mention what caused his hospitalization in the first place. Did he fall out of his apartment first but it wasn’t high enough, so they sent him to the tallest hospital in Moscow?
But no. He apparently suffered a heart attack. His window death was then deemed a suicide as it was known he was on antidepressants. Case closed. The suicide prevention unit at that hospital, I gather, is on the top floor with easy-to-open windows?
Telegram channels close to the Russian security services said his body was discovered by an agent of the SVR, Russia’s foreign intelligence service, who was walking the dog of a senior spymaster in the building’s courtyard on Saturday morning.
Small world.
