Vladimir Egorov, an ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, was found dead on Wednesday, according to Russian state media.
Tobolsk City Duma deputy Egorov, 46, a member of Putin’s ruling United Russia party, fell from the third floor window of a house on Kedrovaya Street in Tobolsk in the Tyumen Oblast, Russian Telegram channel Baza, which has links to Russian security services, reported.
Russian daily newspaper Izvestia also cited a source as saying that Egorov could have fallen out of a third floor window.
Newsweek couldn’t immediately verify the cause of Egorov’s death and has contacted Russia’s Foreign Ministry via email for comment.

The press service of the Investigative Directorate for the Tyumen region told Russia’s state-run news agency RIA Novosti that investigators are “establishing all the circumstances of the incident.”
Last year, Egorov became one of the richest deputies of Tobolsk, with his income amounting to 9.1 million rubles (about $100,500), Russian news outlet RBC reported on Thursday.
This is a developing story and it will be updated when further information becomes available.
