Several top Russian officials have plunged to their deaths from windows in recent years, including a top oil executive and a defense official.

    I think it’s done that way for brand reasons.

    Dude becomes undesirable -> falls out of window -> everyone knows he didn’t fell on it’s own

    It’s fear tactic.

      but liquidating in the “regular” way would have the same effect wouldn’t it?

        With a suicide/accident you don’t need to open an investigation. It’s basically showing off that the execution is state sanctioned at every level, I’d say.
