From a recent NBC News post:
Head of Russian oil giant that criticized Ukraine war dies after reportedly falling from hospital window
“Oil and gas company Lukoil issued a statement early Thursday confirming the death of Ravil Maganov, 67, “after a severe illness,” but did not specify the cause.
Lukoil is Russia’s second-largest oil producer. It was a rare Russian business to come out against Putin’s war in Ukraine, which the Kremlin insists on calling its “special military operation.”
The company’s board of directors called for an end to the war in early March, within days of the full-scale invasion of Russia's neighbor.
“Calling for the soonest termination of the armed conflict, we express our sincere empathy for all victims, who are affected by this tragedy,” a statement from its board of directors read.
His death raised eyebrows given the company's opposition to the war and similar unexplained deaths in recent years….
Alexander Subbotin, a former Lukoil manager, was found dead in his basement outside Moscow in May, according to Reuters, citing local media.
In November 2021, a Russian diplomat was found dead on the streets of Berlin after falling from an upper floor of the embassy, the German outlet Der Spiegel reported, citing security sources.
Investigative journalist Maxim Borodin, who wrote stories about corrupt officials and the Russian military, died in 2018 after falling from his fifth-story balcony, according to the news agency for which he worked.”
It appears that if one disagrees with Putin, one should certainly avoid windows. It’s effective…but not subtle.
