A TOP Russian oligarch has been found dead by Putin’s spies after falling 110ft down from a window at his home in Moscow.
Mikhail Rogachev, 64, was vice-president of Russian oil giant Yukos which was forced out of business for being against the tyrant dictator.

Ravil Maganov, 67, an oil oligarch and chairman of Lukoil fell from the window of the Central Clinical Hospital in Moscow on September 1, 2022[/caption]
His body was found in the courtyard of his tenth-floor flat by an SVR employee linked to a former Russian spymaster.
Initial reports in Moscow media outlets said that he had been suffering from “a severe form of cancer”.
But these reports were denied by his close friends and relatives.
His relatives insisted there were no signs that he was suicidal and he was in a “good mood” shortly before his death.
He now joins the string of unexplained deaths of leading Russian figures under mysterious circumstances.
Lukoil tycoon Ravil Maganov, 67, fell from a window of Moscow’s elite Central Clinical Hospital, also known as the Kremlin clinic, in September 2022.
He was replaced by Vladimir Nekrasov – in October 2023, who died aged 66 of “acute heart failure” in October 2023.
The following month, Russian senator and war backer, Vladimir Lebedev, with close Lukoil links, died suddenly in an unexplained “terrible tragedy” aged 60.
In March, Lukoil vice-president Vitaly Robertus, 53, became the latest victim of a death curse to haunt Lukoil, a prominent company propping up Putin’s regime.
Meanwhile, a prominent female judge was found dead after falling from a Moscow high-rise building.
Natalia Larina, 50, was notorious for handling high-profile political and criminal cases, punishing traitors of the Kremlin.
She had been a criminal judge for more than 15 years – and had a reputation for ruling verdicts on cases against opposition political activists.
In December 2023, Vladimir Egorov, an ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, plunged to his death from a third-floor window in Moscow.
The 46-year-old Egorov was a wealthy and prominent politician in oil-rich Tobolsk in western Siberia.
Just weeks prior, the deputy editor of Putin’s favourite propaganda newspaper was found dead aged only 35.
The body of Anna Tsareva, 35, was discovered at her home in the capital’s Bolshoy Tishinsky Lane – nearly a year after the death of her boss Vladimir Sungorkin, 68.
In February the same year, top Russian defence official and key figure in the funding of Putin’s illegal war in Ukraine Marina Yankina, 58, also fell 160ft to her death in St Petersburg.
She was head of the financial support department of the Ministry of Defence for the Western Military District, which is closely involved in the dictator’s invasion.
Earlier this year, the chief editor of the warmonger’s state-run TV empire was also discovered lifeless after a suspected poisoning.
Zoya Konovalova, 48, who ran a channel operating near the frontlines of Mad Vlad’s illegal war, was found alongside her ex-husband.
