His body was found outside the five-star Skypoint Luxe hotel at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo international airport.

Fedotov had been staying there on a business trip, and was in a "high floor" room in the hotel, according to reports.

A criminal investigation is underway into his death, and no suicide note was found.
