An aide to the vice president of Mail.ru, the most popular Russian instant messenger service, has been found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot at his north Moscow home, a police source said on Friday.
The source told RIA Novosti the body of a 31-year-old man was found in his apartment in north Moscow on August 4.
“The man had apparently taken his life 24 hours earlier by shooting himself in the head with his rifle,” he said.
