Transneft Vice President Andrey Badalov died in Moscow.

His body was found beneath the windows of a building on Rublevskoye Highway, according to state media and pro-government Telegram channels. The preliminary cause of death is suicide.

According to Mash, Badalov had heart problems. He was wearing a Holter monitor, a medical device for 24-hour cardiac monitoring.

"They helped," "It's so familiar, it's not even interesting, they skimp on the new guy," "In Russia, top managers and vice presidents really love to fall out of windows. Don't feed them bread—let them fall out of the window," "And in the air, he stabbed himself 38 times. I've heard that somewhere before," — Russians speculate on social media.
