Russian Minister Found Dead After Firing: “No Life Without Bribes,” Note Says
MOSCOW — A senior Russian minister was found dead Monday in what authorities are calling an apparent suicide, just hours after President Vladimir Putin dismissed him from office amid a growing corruption investigation.
According to Russian state media, the unnamed minister—whose portfolio reportedly included infrastructure development and regional subsidies—left a handwritten note that read: “Life doesn’t have meaning if taking bribes is not possible.”
Russian social media erupted in a mixture of cynicism and dark humor following the news, with one popular post reading, “He died doing what he loved: avoiding accountability.”
