Off-Topic / Top managers in Russia - why so many suicides? [20]
Another puzzling death of a senior Russian manager. Several such cases have occurred since Russia's attack on Ukraine. This time, Ravil Maganov, chairman of the board of directors of the private fuel giant Lukoil jumped from the sixth floor of a hospital. Immediately after the start of the investigation it was announced that the probable cause of death was the manager's suicide. He was said to be diagnosed with severe cardiovascular disease. Investigators have not decided yet whether the investigation would continue or whether the case would be dismissed quickly.
On April 18, the information about the discovery of the body of the former vice-president of Gazprombank, 51-year-old Ladislaus Avajev and his wife and daughter was made public. According to the preliminary version of the investigators, the banker was supposed to shoot his wife and two daughters, and then committed suicide.
The day after this, the family of the former vice-president of Russia's largest private gas company, Novatek, died in a similar way. The body of Sergei Protosenia, 55, his wife and daughter were found on 19 April in their home at the seaside resort of Lloret de Mar in the Spanish region of Catalonia. A Spanish website reported that the mother (53) and daughter (18) were stabbed to death, while Sergei Protosenia probably hanged himself.
In May, it turned out that the first vice-president of Russia's largest bank had been on vacation for two months. Officially, he was about to resign. Andrei Sheemetov (48), senior vice president of Sberbank and president of the corporate branch of the bank, SberCIB, decided to leave the bank. His whereabouts is unknown.
