Former Russian oil executive found dead after ‘fall’
A former Russian oil executive has been found dead after apparently falling from the window of his Moscow flat.
Mikhail Rogachev was found outside his 10th-story apartment in Moscow with injuries consistent with a fall, Russian media reported.
Russian news agencies said authorities were treating his death as a suicide.
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.
The 64-year-old was a former vice-president of Yukos, the oil giant that was broken up and after its billionaire owner Mikhail Khodorkovsky was imprisoned after challenging Vladimir Putin.
He went on to work as executive director of the Onexim group, oligarch Mikhail Prokhorov’s investment vehicle, and later deputy general director of Norilsk Nickel, a mining giant.
He is the latest of nearly a dozen Russian energy executives to die in mysterious circumstances over the past two years.
