The chairman of Russia's second largest oil producer has died after falling from a hospital window in Moscow, according to reports in the country. Ravil Maganov, who was also vice president at Lukoil, had openly criticised the war in Ukraine. The 67-year-old was chair of the company's board which called for the "soonest termination of the armed conflict" and expressed "sincere empathy for all victims" in March. The statement continued: "We strongly support a lasting ceasefire and a settlement of problems through serious negotiations and diplomacy."

Mr Maganov died after falling from a sixth floor window at the Central Clinical Hospital this morning, according to RBC News in Russia. Other Russian media outlets and the Reuters news agency, citing unnamed sources, have also said Mr Maganov fell from a window.

1. What the hell is wrong with the windows in Russia?

Everybody keeps falling out of them

[MurrayDelph]

30. But somehow, they still

manage to relock the window on their way out...

[Backseat Driver]

43. It's the fastest way to the out-house; when you gotta go, you gotta go... n/t

[Beartracks]

45. It seems SOMEbody decided he had to go. n/t

[melm00se]

2. Fell?

seriously? Fell?

Sounds like the guy who died after falling on a knife, 8 or 9 times.

[FarPoint]

15. Exactly....

The russian style springboard dive....

[Ray Bruns]

40. Or committed suicide by shooting himself in the back of the head

[RussBLib]

26. I'll bet Putin is keeping a list

and T**** looks on with envy.

[csziggy]

32. Makes me think of a song - "99 oligarchs fall from a window"

To the tune of 99 bottles of beer on the wall. But the count goes up, not down.

[Deep State Witch]

5. Gravity

The #1 killer of Russian oligarchs.

[RockRaven]

6. Oops.

[llashram]

7. sure he fell

but how and why? I think we of sane minds know. Fell??!! Give me a break RIP

[Hav]

8. The reactions here say it all

This has become a running joke because they don't even try to come up with something new.
It's bizarre after reading only the headline and thinking surely it's not another death of a critic who fell from a window. And then exactly that happened.
It also shows how thin-skinned Putin is. One bad remark and you are done.

[efhmc]

12. But where is the creativity. Does Putin want people to know this is what happened?

[Hav]

14. Good point actually

I thought they are lazy because they get away with it. But sending a warning to others to better be loyal might be the intended message that may be even more important than the killing of one critic.

[IronLionZion]

27. Of course he does

he wants to discourage his critics through fear

[Hekate]

37. Sure he wants people to know this. Terror keeps people in line.

[Snackshack]

10. The windows in russia

Need to be listed as a terrorist org....

[efhmc]

13. Funny.

[CottonBear]

11. Defenestration. Again. NT

[Sancho]

16. 2 dangerous situations: tall buildings for Putin critics, jail cells for Epstein associates...

[Brainfodder]

42. We Jeffrey, He Dumpty?

[sdfernando]

17. Window Cancer is rampant in Russia! /nt

[spudspud]

18. LOL.

Russian government is just trolling people at this point with this non-sense about "falling out of a window." Just like the "he was drunk and fell and hit his head on the coffee table...16 times."

[Martin68]

19. Defenestration.

[orangecrush]

20. Stop the murder, Russia

Oust Putin!

[Bengus81]

21. What windows in a Hospital aren't fixed glass? You can't fall out of them....

What is it, 1930 in Russia?

[cstanleytech]

33. Some of the much older ones probably but either way my money is

on him getting some "assistance" with it.

[Carlitos Brigante]

22. The current Minister Of Murder assigned to these, really needs to come up with more creative methods

[Bengus81]

23. Of course LukeOil said he just died in the Hospital

The person next in line doesn't want to suicide himself in the coming weeks.

[RussBLib]

24. I'm sure T**** wishes certain Americans would "fall out of a window"

...as would his mindless followers. Bizarre how there is so much Putin-affection and Russia affection in the GOP these days.

It's not really about white supremacy over there in Russia. It's all about Putin supremacy.

[IronLionZion]

25. Criticizing Putin is very dangerous to one's health

even in the US https://www.the-sun.com/news/6017210/mystery-suicide-nightclub-tycoon-putin-critic/

[TygrBright]

28. Russians and windows are a terribly dangerous combination, even in hospitals. n/t

[Midnight Writer]

29. I hope our American oligarchs are paying attention to what happens under fascist rule

like they want here in America.

Under our current system, if you have enough money and connections, you are basically untouchable.

In a Dear Leader dictatorship, their money won't protect them. Deviate from the official line, offend the wrong person, break a rule you didn't even know existed? You won't get a call from the government that you let your lawyers handle. You will get a visit from your worst nightmare.

I hope they think about that when they pony up big money to gut our system of laws, overthrow our democracy, and install a President-For-Life.

[cstanleytech]

34. Oh, I suspect Jeffrey Epstein was an example of receiving similar treatment

by some of the more powerful people in the US unless of course Putin was behind it as well which would honestly not surprise me.

[keithbvadu2]

31. Hospital? Could I get a room on the ground floor please?

Hospital? Could I get a room on the ground floor please?

[oasis]

50. I wonder if the millionaire could have be treated for his illness at

his home.

[Bo Zarts]

35. Baxtered!

[ZonkerHarris]

36. Discharged with extreme prejudice

[IcyPeas]

38. there are 7.97 billion people on earth as of September 2022

and one man is causing havoc.

[Alien Life Form]

39. Next story from Russia

A critic of Putin has been found beaten to death.. Russia police rule it suicide!

[colorado_ufo]

41. People keep asking why Trump took the documents.

Possibly for monetary reasons, but I think this is the real reason: Out of office, he no longer had access to top level information, and yet he knew too much. Possessing these documents was a life insurance policy.

[Major Nikon]

44. Still better healthcare than the US

Just sayin’

[jcgoldie]

46. Maybe he gave Mrs. Putin a foot massage...

[Ways]

47. Fascists & Dictators

I bet trump is so envious of Putin for having man killed. After all, trump said he could stand in the middle of 5th avenue and shoot anyone and get away with it . We are lucky he’s mental.

[3catwoman3]

48. In the summer of 1981, I spent 2 weeks in the then-still USSR.

It was a professional tour for nurse practitioners to see if there was anything similar to our role in the USSR. (Short answer - there was not.)

The first hospital we visited was in Moscow. A very, very old building. Wooden floors. Beds with no side rails. There were flies everywhere because all the windows were open and there were no screens!

[Ilsa]

52. gross. Going to the hospital appears to have been as dangerous as

any ailment or injury.

[LeftishBrit]

49. The number of critics of Putin who suffer nasty accidents is rather remarkable

[Ilsa]

51. EIGHT Lukoil and Gazprom execs have mysteriously died from bizarre accidents

over the last year.

[LudwigPastorius]

53. More death from Trump's role model, the Butcher of Ukraine.
